  "details": "## Summary\n\nbusybox and toybox applet execution weakened exec approval binding.\n\n## Affected Packages / Versions\n\n- Package: `openclaw`\n- Ecosystem: npm\n- Affected versions: `\u003e= 2026.2.23 \u003c 2026.4.12`\n- Patched versions: `\u003e= 2026.4.12`\n\n## Impact\n\nOpaque multi-call binaries such as `busybox` and `toybox` could obscure which applet or script-like behavior would actually run, weakening exec approval binding and risk classification.\n\n## Technical Details\n\nThe fix treats `busybox` and `toybox` as opaque mutable script runners and fails closed rather than binding unsafe applet invocations.\n\n## Fix\n\nThe issue was fixed in #65713. The first stable tag containing the fix is `v2026.4.12`, and `openclaw@2026.4.14` includes the fix.\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n\n- `666f48d9b882a8a1415ca53f9567c72499d850c9`\n- PR: #65713\n\n## Release Process Note\n\nUsers should upgrade to `openclaw` 2026.4.12 or newer. The latest npm release, `2026.4.14`, already includes the fix.\n\n## Credits\n\nThanks to @decsecre583 for reporting this issue.",
