CVE-2026-100577: OpenClaw server-side request forgery in video asset handling

CVE-2026-100577 · Severity: medium · CVSS 6.3 · Published 2026-09-26

OpenClaw is a CLI tool for managing video generation and asset processing. When fetching video files from providers, versions before 2026.8.1 fail to validate URLs, allowing a malicious or compromised provider to cause the CLI to make requests to private or internal services on the host network. This could expose sensitive information from services only accessible internally.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a server-side request forgery (SSRF) in the video asset download functionality. The CLI does not apply network destination checks to URLs returned by video-generation providers, unlike untrusted remote URLs. An attacker controlling or compromising a provider can trigger the CLI to request private, loopback, or internal URLs, potentially accessing information from services like localhost APIs or internal infrastructure reachable from the OpenClaw host. The fix is available in version 2026.8.1 and later.
