SSRF (Server-Side Request Forgery) in openclaw (CVE-2026-45000)

Summary

SSRF in openclaw (CVE-2026-45000). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via openclaw. Mitigation: upgrade to 2026.4.20 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Affected Packages / Versions

  • Package: openclaw (npm)
  • Affected versions: < 2026.4.20
  • Patched version: 2026.4.20

Impact

Browser profile creation normalized cdpUrl values before persisting them, but did not apply the configured browser SSRF policy at creation time. In deployments that explicitly disabled private-network CDP targets, a stored profile could still point at a private-network or metadata endpoint and later be probed by normal profile status flows.

Default trusted-operator browser behavior allows private-network CDP endpoints, so this only affected strict-mode deployments. Severity is low.

Fix

OpenClaw now checks CDP endpoints against the browser SSRF policy during profile creation and reachability operations.

Fix commits:

  • 1fd049e3074cac72f6734a7fe88468c84f5f8bd7
  • e90c89cf8b1459f2aa1f3a665be67392b6c03fdf

Release

Fixed in OpenClaw 2026.4.20.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'openclaw' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify 
    grep -r 'openclaw' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で openclaw を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply patch patch 
    Upgrade openclaw to 2026.4.20

    ステージング環境で 2026.4.20 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。

  3. 3
    Post-deployment verification verify 
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
