OpenClaw: Browser SSRF policy default allowed private-network navigation
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
## Summary
Browser SSRF policy default allowed private-network navigation.
## Affected Packages / Versions
- Package: `openclaw`
- Ecosystem: npm
- Affected versions: `< 2026.4.14`
- Patched versions: `>= 2026.4.14`
## Impact
Browser SSRF protection could allow private-network navigation by default in paths where restrictive behavior was expected, exposing internal services or metadata endpoints through browser-driven requests.
## Technical Details
The fix preserves strict SSRF configuration semantics, keeps private-network access disabled unless explicitly opted in, and updates loopback CDP readiness handling for the stricter default.
## Fix
The issue was fixed in #66354 and #66386. The first stable tag containing the fix is `v2026.4.14`, and `[email protected]` includes the fix.

- PR: #66354, #66386
## Release Process Note
Users should upgrade to `openclaw` 2026.4.14 or newer. The latest npm release, `2026.4.14`, already includes the fix.
