Last modified
CVE-2026-22171 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.1/10 on the CVSS scale. OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.19 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the Feishu media download flow where untrusted media keys are interpolated directly into temporary file paths in extensions/feishu/src/media.ts. An attacker who can control Feishu media key values returned to the client can use traversal segments to escape os.tmpdir() and write arbitrary files within the OpenClaw process permissions.. EPSS estimates a 0.34% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
