(updated )

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-vr7j-g7jv-h5mp. This link is maintained to preserve external references.
Original Description
OpenClaw before 2026.2.17 creates session transcript JSONL files with overly broad default permissions, allowing local users to read transcript contents. Attackers with local access can read transcript files to extract sensitive information including secrets from tool output.
