{"id":"GHSA-m7x8-2w3w-pr42","summary":"OpenClaw has a command injection in maintainer clawtributors updater","details":"### Summary\nCommand injection in the maintainer/dev script `scripts/update-clawtributors.ts`.\n\n### Impact\nAffects contributors/maintainers (or CI) who run `bun scripts/update-clawtributors.ts` in a source checkout that contains a malicious commit author email (e.g. crafted `@users.noreply.github.com` values).\n\nNormal CLI usage is not affected (`npm i -g openclaw`): this script is not part of the shipped CLI and is not executed during routine operation.\n\n### Affected Versions\n- Source checkouts: tags `v2026.1.8` through `v2026.2.13` (inclusive)\n- Version range (structured): `\u003e= 2026.1.8, \u003c 2026.2.14`\n\n### Details\nThe script derived a GitHub login from `git log` author metadata and interpolated it into a shell command (via `execSync`). A malicious commit record could inject shell metacharacters and execute arbitrary commands when the script is run.\n\n### Fix\n- Fix commit: `a429380e337152746031d290432a4b93aa553d55`\n- Planned patched version: `2026.2.14`\n\n### Credits\nThanks @scanleale and @MegaManSec (https://joshua.hu) of [AISLE Research Team](https://aisle.com/) for reporting.","aliases":["CVE-2026-26323"],"modified":"2026-02-20T16:56:55.296515Z","published":"2026-02-18T00:46:54Z","database_specific":{"nvd_published_at":"2026-02-19T23:16:25Z","cwe_ids":["CWE-78"],"severity":"HIGH","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-02-18T00:46:54Z"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-m7x8-2w3w-pr42"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-26323"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/a429380e337152746031d290432a4b93aa553d55"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/releases/tag/v2026.2.14"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"openclaw","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/openclaw"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"2026.1.8"},{"fixed":"2026.2.14"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/02/GHSA-m7x8-2w3w-pr42/GHSA-m7x8-2w3w-pr42.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]}
