Medium (6.0) in openclaw openclaw. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in openclaw 2026.5.6.
OpenClaw before 2026.5.6 contains an approval policy bypass vulnerability in the Skill Workshop apply flow that allows agent tool calls to set apply: true despite approvalPolicy: pending configuration. Attackers can exploit this by reaching the affected apply path to apply workshop changes before the expected approval step, potentially modifying configurations without proper authorization.
