CVE-2026-32054
OpenClaw has browser trace/download path symlink escape in temp output handling
Description
### Summary Browser trace/download output path handling allowed symlink-root and symlink-parent escapes from the managed temp root. ### Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Latest published npm version: `2026.2.24` - Affected versions: `<= 2026.2.24` - Planned patched release: `2026.2.25` ### Impact An attacker with relevant local foothold and ability to influence output paths could route writes outside the intended temp root via symlink traversal, leading to arbitrary file overwrite. ### Fix Commit(s) - `496a76c03ba85e15ea715e5a583e498ae04d36e3` ### Release Process Note `patched_versions` is pre-set to the release (`2026.2.25`) so once npm `2026.2.25` is published, the advisory is published. OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.
