medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438194

Description

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

 - OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.23 contain an exec approval bypass vulnerability in allowlist mode where
 allow-always grants could be circumvented through unrecognized multiplexer shell wrappers like busybox and
 toybox sh -c commands. Attackers can exploit this by invoking arbitrary payloads under the same
 multiplexer wrapper to satisfy stored allowlist rules, bypassing intended execution restrictions.
