Medium (5.7) in openclaw openclaw. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in openclaw 2026.2.14.
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.14 contain a path traversal vulnerability in sandbox skill mirroring (must be enabled) that uses the skill frontmatter name parameter unsanitized when copying skills into the sandbox workspace. Attackers who provide a crafted skill package with traversal sequences like ../ or absolute paths in the name field can write files outside the sandbox workspace root directory.
