Summary
OpenClaw has a gateway exec allowlist allow-always bypass via unregistered /usr/bin/script wrapper
Details

Summary

Allow-always persistence did not unwrap /usr/bin/script and similar wrappers to the actual executed target before storing trust decisions.

Impact

A user approval for one wrapped command could persist trust for a wrapper binary that later executed a different underlying program.

Affected Component

src/infra/dispatch-wrapper-resolution.ts, src/infra/exec-wrapper-resolution.ts

Fixed Versions

  • Affected: <= 2026.3.24
  • Patched: >= 2026.3.28
  • Latest stable 2026.3.28 contains the fix.

Fix

Fixed by commit 83da3cfe31 (infra: unwrap script wrapper approval targets).

Severity
7.3 (High)
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
