CVE-2026-44992: OpenClaw: Workspace dotenv MiniMax host override could redirect credentialed requests
(updated )
A malicious workspace .env could set MINIMAX_API_HOST and redirect credentialed MiniMax requests to an attacker-controlled origin, exposing the MiniMax API key in the outbound Authorization header.
This requires running OpenClaw from an attacker-controlled workspace. Severity is medium.
