Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-08 00:16 – Updated: 2026-04-08 00:16Affected
openclaw-claude-bridge v1.1.0
Issue
v1.1.0 spawns the Claude Code CLI subprocess with --allowed-tools "" and the release notes + README claim this "disables all CLI tools" for sandboxing. This claim is incorrect.
Per the Claude Code CLI documentation, --allowed-tools (alias --allowedTools) is an auto-approve allowlist of tools that execute without permission prompts — NOT a restriction on which tools are available. The correct flag to restrict the available tool set is --tools:
--tools <tools...>Specify the list of available tools from the built-in set. Use""to disable all tools,"default"to use all tools, or specify tool names (e.g."Bash,Edit,Read").
Impact
- All CLI tools (Read/Write/Bash/WebFetch/...) remain nominally available to the spawned subprocess.
- Actual execution behavior in
--printnon-interactive mode depends on undocumented CLI defaults (may auto-deny, may error out, may hang). - Users who deploy the bridge behind any interface that forwards untrusted prompts (e.g., publicly exposed OpenClaw gateway, automated pipelines with web-fetched context, agents that consume tool results from other systems) may be relying on a sandbox that does not exist.
The README explicitly makes a security claim the code does not uphold, creating a false sense of safety for downstream operators. If the underlying CLI behavior changes in a future version to auto-allow tools in --print mode, prompt-injection attacks could trigger arbitrary Read/Write/Bash operations in the gateway's process context.
Patches
Fixed in v1.1.1 (commit 8a296f5) by switching to --tools "". The environment variable was also renamed from CLAUDE_ALLOWED_TOOLS to CLAUDE_TOOLS to match the flag.
Workarounds
Setting CLAUDE_ALLOWED_TOOLS on v1.1.0 has no mitigating effect. Upgrade to v1.1.1 or manually edit dist/cli-bridge.js to replace --allowed-tools with --tools.

Mitigation MIT-1
The architecture needs to access and modification attributes for files to only those users who actually require those actions.
Mitigation MIT-46
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
- Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
- Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
CAPEC-1: Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by ACLs
In applications, particularly web applications, access to functionality is mitigated by an authorization framework. This framework maps Access Control Lists (ACLs) to elements of the application's functionality; particularly URL's for web apps. In the case that the administrator failed to specify an ACL for a particular element, an attacker may be able to access it with impunity. An attacker with the ability to access functionality not properly constrained by ACLs can obtain sensitive information and possibly compromise the entire application. Such an attacker can access resources that must be available only to users at a higher privilege level, can access management sections of the application, or can run queries for data that they otherwise not supposed to.
CAPEC-127: Directory Indexing
An adversary crafts a request to a target that results in the target listing/indexing the content of a directory as output. One common method of triggering directory contents as output is to construct a request containing a path that terminates in a directory name rather than a file name since many applications are configured to provide a list of the directory's contents when such a request is received. An adversary can use this to explore the directory tree on a target as well as learn the names of files. This can often end up revealing test files, backup files, temporary files, hidden files, configuration files, user accounts, script contents, as well as naming conventions, all of which can be used by an attacker to mount additional attacks.
CAPEC-81: Web Server Logs Tampering
Web Logs Tampering attacks involve an attacker injecting, deleting or otherwise tampering with the contents of web logs typically for the purposes of masking other malicious behavior. Additionally, writing malicious data to log files may target jobs, filters, reports, and other agents that process the logs in an asynchronous attack pattern. This pattern of attack is similar to "Log Injection-Tampering-Forging" except that in this case, the attack is targeting the logs of the web server and not the application.
