GHSA-7ff8-xjh3-mgh6: OpenClaw's non-default autoAllowSkills setting could bypass on-miss exec prompt

March 3, 2026

In openclaw versions up to and including 2026.2.22-2, a non-default exec-approval configuration could allow a skill-name collision to bypass an ask=on-miss prompt.

When autoAllowSkills=true, a path-scoped executable such as ./skill-bin could resolve to basename skill-bin, satisfy the skills allowlist segment, and run without prompting for approval.
