Title
OpenClaw < 2026.2.21 - Prototype Pollution via Debug Override Path
Summary
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.21 accept prototype-reserved keys in runtime /debug set override object values, allowing prototype pollution attacks. Authorized /debug set callers can inject __proto__, constructor, or prototype keys to manipulate object prototypes and bypass command gate restrictions.
