medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 439467

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - OpenClaw before 2026.3.24 contains an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-27486 where the !stop chat command uses
 an unpatched killProcessTree function from shell-utils.ts that sends SIGKILL immediately without graceful
 SIGTERM shutdown. Attackers can trigger process termination via the !stop command, causing data
 corruption, resource leaks, and skipped security-sensitive cleanup operations. (CVE-2026-35667)

Update the openclaw library and its related packages to version 2026.3.24 or later.
