What fixes it

A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

OpenClaw versions before 2026.8.1 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability where Allow Always approvals for exact commands persist as path-only grants on macOS and Linux. Attackers can reuse the same executable with different arguments to execute commands without triggering new approval prompts, potentially accessing files or internal services.
