{"id":"GHSA-43x4-g22p-3hrq","summary":"OpenClaw: Chrome --no-sandbox disabled OS-level browser sandbox in sandbox browser container","details":"## Summary\nSandbox browser container launched Chromium with `--no-sandbox` by default, disabling Chromium's OS-level sandbox protections.\n\n## Affected Packages / Versions\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm ecosystem)\n- Latest published npm version at triage time (2026-02-21): `2026.2.19-2`\n- Affected range: `\u003c= 2026.2.19-2`\n- Planned patched version for next release: `2026.2.21`\n\n## Impact\nWhen `--no-sandbox` is enabled by default, renderer compromise no longer requires a separate sandbox escape. This weakens container browser isolation and increases impact from renderer-side bugs.\n\n## Resolution\n- Default `--no-sandbox` removed from sandbox browser entrypoint.\n- Explicit opt-in added via `OPENCLAW_BROWSER_NO_SANDBOX` / `CLAWDBOT_BROWSER_NO_SANDBOX`.\n- Browser container hash migration + security audit checks added so stale containers are surfaced and can be recreated safely.\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n- e7eba01efc4c3c400e9cfd3ce3d661cbc788a631\n- 1835dec2004fe7a62c6a7ba46b8485f124ec6199\n\n## Release Process Note\nThe advisory `patched_versions` field is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.21`). After npm release publication, only advisory publish action should remain.\n\nOpenClaw thanks @TerminalsandCoffee for reporting.","aliases":["CVE-2026-32046"],"modified":"2026-03-30T13:56:22.230179Z","published":"2026-03-03T18:10:34Z","database_specific":{"severity":"MODERATE","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-03-03T18:10:34Z","nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-693"]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-43x4-g22p-3hrq"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-32046"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/1835dec2004fe7a62c6a7ba46b8485f124ec6199"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/e7eba01efc4c3c400e9cfd3ce3d661cbc788a631"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/openclaw-os-level-sandbox-bypass-via-no-sandbox-flag"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"openclaw","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/openclaw"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2026.2.21"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/03/GHSA-43x4-g22p-3hrq/GHSA-43x4-g22p-3hrq.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]}
