What is CVE-2026-35668?

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.3.24 are susceptible to a path traversal vulnerability that arises from inadequate parameter validation in sandbox enforcement. This flaw allows sandboxed agents to potentially read files located in other agents' workspaces by exploiting unnormalized 'mediaUrl' or 'fileUrl' parameters. Attackers could leverage this vulnerability to gain access to sensitive data, including API keys and configuration settings, which reside outside of designated sandbox roots. It is crucial for users to apply necessary updates to mitigate this risk.
