CVE-2026-28363: Openclaw

High severity, CVSS 8.8. EPSS: 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In OpenClaw before 2026.2.23, tools.exec.safeBins validation for sort could be bypassed via GNU long-option abbreviations (such as --compress-prog) in allowlist mode, leading to approval-free execution paths that were intended to require approval. Only an exact string such as --compress-program was denied.
