      <title>GHSA-jxrq-8fm4-9p58 — OpenClaw: Zip extraction symlink traversal could write outside destination</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/ghsa-jxrq-8fm4-9p58</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; npm: openclaw&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Summary
A path confinement bypass in OpenClaw ZIP extraction allowed writes outside the intended destination when a pre-existing symlink was present under the extraction root.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Affected Packages / Versions
- Package: `openclaw` (npm)
- Latest published npm version at triage time: `2026.2.21-2`
- Affected versions: `&amp;lt;= 2026.2.21-2`
- Planned patched version for next release: `2026.2.22`&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Technical Details
The vulnerable path was in `src/infra/archive.ts` ZIP extraction logic. Output-path checks were lexical, but writes could still traverse an existing symlink in destination path segments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fix blocks this by:
- rejecting symlink traversal in destination path segments,
- validating resolved destination paths remain inside the extraction root,
- using no-follow file opens for ZIP output writes where supported,
- adding a regression test for pre-seeded destination symlink traversal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Impact
- Type: Arbitrary file write outside extraction root via symlink traversal during ZIP extraction.
- Preconditions: attacker-controlled archive extraction plus pre-existing symlink in destination path.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Fix Commit(s)
- 4b226b74f5fd3b106a83a6347fd404172e2fd246&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Release Process Note
Patched version is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.22`).
Once npm release `2026.2.22` is published, the advisory can be published without further field edits.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
