GHSA-6c9j-x93c-rw6j: OpenClaw safeBins file-existence oracle information disclosure

February 19, 2026 (updated February 27, 2026)

An information disclosure vulnerability in OpenClaw’s tools.exec.safeBins approval flow allowed a file-existence oracle.

When safe-bin validation examined candidate file paths, command allow/deny behavior could differ based on whether a path already existed on the host filesystem. An attacker could probe for file presence by comparing outcomes for existing vs non-existing filenames.
