Summary

The public gateway agent RPC allowed an authenticated operator with operator.write to supply attacker-controlled spawnedBy and workspaceDir values. That let the caller re-root the agent run outside its configured workspace boundary.

Impact

A non-owner operator could escape the intended workspace boundary and run normal file and exec tools from an arbitrary process-accessible directory.

Affected versions

openclaw <= 2026.3.8

Patch

Fixed in openclaw 2026.3.11 and included in later releases such as 2026.3.12. The gateway now enforces the configured workspace boundary for agent runs regardless of caller-supplied overrides.

Fix

Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere
