An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-43566 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- openclaw (npm): affected from 2026.4.7; fixed in 2026.4.14\n- openclaw (npm): affected from 2026.4.7; fixed in 2026.4.14\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-2026-43566/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43566/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-43566","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43566/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-43566","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g2hm-779g-vm32","MINI-px96-mvvp-mhvh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenClaw server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can escalate privileges by sending untrusted webhook wake events that bypass owner downgrade logic in OpenClaw.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[{"product":"openclaw","vendor":"openclaw"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-184","name":"Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs"}],"description":"OpenClaw versions 2026.4.7 before 2026.4.14 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability where heartbeat owner downgrade logic skips webhook wake events carrying untrusted content.
