  "details": "OpenClaw\u0027s `system.run` shell-wrapper detection did not recognize PowerShell `-EncodedCommand` forms as inline-command wrappers.\n\nIn `allowlist` mode, a caller with access to `system.run` could invoke `pwsh` or `powershell` using `-EncodedCommand`, `-enc`, or `-e`, and the request would fall back to plain argv analysis instead of the normal shell-wrapper approval path. This could allow a PowerShell inline payload to execute without the approval step that equivalent `-Command` invocations would require.\n\nLatest published npm version: `2026.3.2`\n\nFixed on `main` on March 7, 2026 in `1d1757b16f48f1a93cd16ab0ad7e2c3c63ce727d` by recognizing PowerShell encoded-command aliases during shell-wrapper parsing, so allowlist mode continues to require approval for those payloads. Normal approved PowerShell wrapper flows continue to work.\n\n## Affected Packages / Versions\n\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm)\n- Affected versions: `\u003c= 2026.3.2`\n- Patched version: `\u003e= 2026.3.7`\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n\n- `1d1757b16f48f1a93cd16ab0ad7e2c3c63ce727d`\n\n## Release Process Note\n\nnpm `2026.3.7` was published on March 8, 2026. This advisory is fixed in the released package.\n\nThanks @tdjackey for reporting.",
