Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.4.15

Description An arbitrary file read issue exists in the QMD backend memory get() function. Attackers with access to the memory tool can bypass path restrictions by providing arbitrary workspace Markdown paths, allowing them to read any Markdown files within the workspace root, including those outside canonical memory locations or indexed QMD result sets.

Recommendations Update to version 2026.4.15. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the memory get() function in the QMD backend.
