Summary

OpenClaw: Image Tool `tools.fs.workspaceOnly` Bypass via Sandbox Bridge Mounts

Details

Summary

The image tool did not fully honor the tools.fs.workspaceOnly filesystem boundary. In affected releases, image-path resolution could still traverse sandbox bridge mounts outside the workspace and read files from mounted directories that the other file tools would reject.

Affected Packages / Versions

Package: openclaw (npm)
Affected: < 2026.3.2
Fixed: >= 2026.3.2
Latest released tags checked: v2026.3.23 (ccfeecb6887cd97937e33a71877ad512741e82b2) and v2026.3.23-2 (630f1479c44f78484dfa21bb407cbe6f171dac87)
Latest published npm version checked: 2026.3.23-2

14baadda2c456f3cf749f1f97e8678746a34a7f4

Release Status

The complete fix shipped in v2026.3.2 and remains present in v2026.3.23 and v2026.3.23-2.

Code-Level Confirmation

src/agents/openclaw-tools.ts now passes fsPolicy into createImageTool, so the image tool receives the same workspace-only policy input as the other filesystem tools.
src/agents/tools/image-tool.ts, src/agents/tools/media-tool-shared.ts, and src/agents/sandbox-media-paths.ts now restrict local roots and sandbox-bridge resolution to the workspace when tools.fs.workspaceOnly is enabled.

OpenClaw thanks @YLChen-007 for reporting.
