What is CVE-2026-41389?

OpenClaw, in its versions prior to 2026.4.15, is susceptible to an arbitrary file access vulnerability due to inadequate enforcement of local-root containment on tool-result media paths. This weakness enables attackers to create malicious references, facilitating unauthorized access to local files or Windows network paths. Consequently, this could lead to the exposure of sensitive files and credentials, posing significant security risks to affected systems.

Affected Version(s)
