Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-42434 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- openclaw (npm): affected from 2026.4.5; fixed in 2026.4.10\n- openclaw (npm): affected from 2026.4.5; fixed in 2026.4.10\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42434/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42434/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-42434","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42434/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-42434","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-736r-jwj6-4w23","MINI-mhmj-6xw4-4x57"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenClaw agent platform","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass sandbox restrictions by overriding exec routing parameters, allowing unauthorized code execution on remote nodes.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"OpenClaw versions 2026.4.5 before 2026.4.10 contain a sandbox escape vulnerability allowing sandboxed agents to override exec routing by specifying host=node.
