Last modified

CVE-2026-32988 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.8/10 on the CVSS scale. OpenClaw before 2026.3.11 contains a sandbox boundary bypass vulnerability in fs-bridge staged writes where temporary file creation and population are not pinned to a verified parent directory. Attackers can exploit a race condition in parent-path alias changes to write attacker-controlled bytes outside the intended validated path before the final guarded replace step executes.. EPSS estimates a 0.08% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
