Affected packages

• npm openclaw: < 2026.3.28 → fixed in 2026.3.28

Description

Summary Host execution env sanitization did not block `GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR` or `AWS_CONFIG_FILE`, even though both can redirect trusted tooling to attacker-controlled content. Impact An approved exec request could redirect git or AWS CLI behavior through attacker-controlled configuration and execute untrusted code or load attacker-selected credentials. Affected Component `src/infra/host-env-security-policy.json, src/infra/host-env-security.ts` Fixed Versions • Affected: `= 2026.3.28` • Latest stable `2026.3.28` contains the fix. Fix Fixed by commit `6eb82fba3c` (`Infra: block additional host exec env keys`). OpenClaw thanks @nicky-cc of Tencent zhuque Lab https://github.com/Tencent/AI-Infra-Guard for reporting.
