Summary
OpenClaw: Sandbox media TOCTOU could read files outside sandbox root
Details

Summary

Sandbox media handling had a time-of-check/time-of-use gap: media paths could be validated first and read later through a separate path. A symlink retarget between those steps could cause reads outside sandboxRoot.

Impact

Affected versions could permit host file reads outside the intended sandbox root in media attachment/image flows.

Fix

Media reads now use consolidated root-scoped, boundary-safe read paths at use time, removing check/use drift across call sites.

Affected and Patched Versions

  • Affected: <= 2026.2.26
  • Patched: 2026.3.1
