Summary

OpenClaw: Experimental apply_patch may bypass workspace-only checks in opt-in sandbox mounts (off by default)

Details

Summary

In some opt-in sandbox configurations, the experimental apply_patch tool did not consistently apply workspace-only checks to mounted paths (for example /agent/...).

Impact

This does not affect default installs.

Default posture: - agents.defaults.sandbox.mode=off (sandbox disabled by default) - tools.exec.applyPatch.enabled=false (experimental tool disabled by default)

This behavior applies only when all of the following are enabled/configured: - sandbox mode, - experimental apply_patch, - workspace-only expectations (tools.fs.workspaceOnly=true and/or tools.exec.applyPatch.workspaceOnly=true), - and writable mounts outside workspace.

Under that opt-in setup, apply_patch operations could target mounted paths outside the workspace root.

Affected Packages / Versions

Package: openclaw (npm)
Affected published versions: <= 2026.2.22-2
Fixed in code on main: commit 6634030be31e1a1842967df046c2f2e47490e6bf
Patched release: 2026.2.23

Technical Details

In the sandbox path flow, apply_patch used sandbox.bridge.resolvePath(...) without applying the same workspace-root assertion used by other filesystem tools. The fix makes apply_patch follow the same workspace-only enforcement for sandbox-resolved paths (unless explicitly disabled with tools.exec.applyPatch.workspaceOnly=false).

Release Process Note

patched_versions is pre-set to the released version (2026.2.23). Patched in 2026.2.23 and published.

CVE-2026-32007 (GCVE-0-2026-32007)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-03-19 22:06 – Updated: 2026-06-23 16:14 X_Open Source

Title

OpenClaw < 2026.2.23 - Sandbox Bypass in apply_patch Tool via Workspace-Only Check Bypass

Summary

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.23 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the experimental apply_patch tool that allows attackers with sandbox access to modify files outside the workspace directory by exploiting inconsistent enforcement of workspace-only checks on mounted paths. Attackers can use apply_patch operations on writable mounts outside the workspace root to access and modify arbitrary files on the system.

GHSA-H9XM-J4QG-FVPG

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-03 21:37 – Updated: 2026-03-30 13:46

Summary

OpenClaw: Experimental apply_patch may bypass workspace-only checks in opt-in sandbox mounts (off by default)

Details

Summary

In some opt-in sandbox configurations, the experimental apply_patch tool did not consistently apply workspace-only checks to mounted paths (for example /agent/...).

Impact

This does not affect default installs.

Default posture: - agents.defaults.sandbox.mode=off (sandbox disabled by default) - tools.exec.applyPatch.enabled=false (experimental tool disabled by default)

Under that opt-in setup, apply_patch operations could target mounted paths outside the workspace root.

  "details": "### Summary\nIn some opt-in sandbox configurations, the **experimental** `apply_patch` tool did not consistently apply workspace-only checks to mounted paths (for example `/agent/...`).\n\n### Impact\nThis does **not** affect default installs.\n\nDefault posture:\n- `agents.defaults.sandbox.mode=off` (sandbox disabled by default)\n- `tools.exec.applyPatch.enabled=false` (experimental tool disabled by default)\n\nThis behavior applies only when all of the following are enabled/configured:\n- sandbox mode,\n- experimental `apply_patch`,\n- workspace-only expectations (`tools.fs.workspaceOnly=true` and/or `tools.exec.applyPatch.workspaceOnly=true`),\n- and writable mounts outside workspace.\n\nUnder that opt-in setup, `apply_patch` operations could target mounted paths outside the workspace root.\n\n### Affected Packages / Versions\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm)\n- Affected published versions: `\u003c= 2026.2.22-2`\n- Fixed in code on `main`: commit `6634030be31e1a1842967df046c2f2e47490e6bf`\n- Patched release: `2026.2.23`\n\n### Technical Details\nIn the sandbox path flow, `apply_patch` used `sandbox.bridge.resolvePath(...)` without applying the same workspace-root assertion used by other filesystem tools. The fix makes `apply_patch` follow the same workspace-only enforcement for sandbox-resolved paths (unless explicitly disabled with `tools.exec.applyPatch.workspaceOnly=false`).\n\n### Fix Commit(s)\n- `6634030be31e1a1842967df046c2f2e47490e6bf`\n\n### Release Process Note\n`patched_versions` is pre-set to the released version (`2026.2.23`). Patched in `2026.2.23` and published.\n\nOpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.",

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
