OpenClaw: Sandbox file operations use check-then-act, bypassing fd-based TOCTOU defenses
Details
Summary
Sandbox file operations use check-then-act, bypassing fd-based TOCTOU defenses
Current Maintainer Triage
- Status: narrow
- Normalized severity: medium
- Assessment: Released workspace-only apply_patch remove and mkdir operations were still check-then-act, but the draft overstates scope by bundling broader edit paths; keep it open but narrow it to the actual sandbox-workspace mutation boundary.
