OpenClaw hardened the skill download target directory validation
Summary
OpenClaw hardened the skill download target directory validation
Original description
The description as published by the source.
OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant. Prior to version 2026.2.15, a bug in download skill installation allowed targetDir values from skill frontmatter to resolve outside the per-skill tools directory if not strictly validated. In the admin-only skills.install flow, this could write files outside the intended install sandbox. Version 2026.2.15 contains a fix for the issue.
