CVE-2026-62199
HIGH 8.7 ALL-YEARSOpenClaw versions before 2026.6.6 contain a flaw in host exec environment filtering that can miss interpreter startup variables. When the affected feature is enabled and reachable, a lower-trust caller or configured input path can supply crafted environment variables to execute or persist actions beyond the caller's intended authorization.
Severe if exploited (CVSS 8.7), but no confirmed exploitation. Patch on a normal cadence.
