OpenClaw: Sandbox escape via TOCTOU race in remote FS bridge readFile
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
## Summary
Sandbox escape via TOCTOU race in remote FS bridge readFile
## Current Maintainer Triage
- Normalized severity: critical
- Assessment: v2026.3.28 remote sandbox reads still do path-check then separate file read, so the TOCTOU sandbox escape remains present in the latest shipped tag.
## Affected Packages / Versions
- Package: `openclaw` (npm)
- Latest published npm version: `2026.3.31`
- Vulnerable version range: `<=2026.3.28`
- Patched versions: `>= 2026.3.31`
- First stable tag containing the fix: `v2026.3.31`
