OpenClaw < 2026.2.14 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 299797

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of OpenClaw installed on the remote host is prior to 2026.2.14. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:

- A command injection in the maintainer clawtributors updater script allowed arbitrary command execution via crafted git commit author metadata. (CVE-2026-26323)

- The Gateway tool accepted a tool-supplied gatewayUrl without sufficient restrictions, enabling SSRF via outbound WebSocket connections to user-specified targets. (CVE-2026-26322)

- The optional Telnyx webhook handler could accept unsigned inbound webhook requests when telnyx.publicKey is not configured, allowing unauthenticated callers to forge Telnyx events. (CVE-2026-26319)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.2.14 or later.
