CVE-2026-32018
OpenClaw's serialize sandbox registry writes to prevent races and delete-rollback corruption
Description
## Impact Concurrent `updateRegistry`/`removeRegistryEntry` operations for sandbox containers and browsers could lose updates or resurrect removed entries under race conditions. The registry writes were read-modify-write in a window with no locking and permissive fallback parsing, so concurrent registry updates could produce stale snapshots and overwrite each other. That desyncs sandbox state and can affect `sandbox list`, `sandbox prune`, and `sandbox recreate --all` behavior. ## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Affected versions: `<= 2026.2.17` - Patched versions: `2026.2.18` ## Fix Commit(s) - `cc29be8c9` OpenClaw thanks @kexinoh for reporting.
