GHSA-f7ww-2725-qvw2 OpenClaw: Node system.run approval bypass via parent-symlink cwd rebind

• npm openclaw: < 2026.2.26 → fixed in 2026.2.26

Summary For `host=node` executions, approval context could be bypassed after approval-time by rebinding a writable parent symlink in `cwd` while preserving the visible `cwd` string. Affected Packages / Versions • Package: `openclaw` (npm) • Affected: `= 2026.2.26` (planned next npm release) Impact A command approved for one filesystem location could execute from a different location if a mutable parent symlink changed between approval and execution. Fix • Added immutable approval-time plan preparation (`system.run.prepare`) and `systemRunPlanV2` canonical fields (`argv`, `cwd`, `agentId`, `sessionKey`). • Enforced canonical plan values through approval request storage and forwarding-time sanitization. • Rejected mutable parent-symlink path components during approval-plan building to block symlink rebind bypass. • Follow-up refactors centralized command catalogs and approval context/error handling to reduce future drift.

Once npm `[email protected]` is published, publish this advisory directly without further version-field edits. OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.
