OpenClaw < 2026.3.2 - Tar Archive Safety Bypass in Skills Installation

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.3.2 contain an archive extraction vulnerability in the tar.bz2 installer path that bypasses safety checks enforced on other archive formats. Attackers can craft malicious tar.bz2 skill archives to bypass special-entry blocking and extracted-size guardrails, causing local denial of service during skill installation.

OpenClaw < 2026.2.14 - Denial of Service via Unguarded Archive Extraction in extractArchive

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.14 contain a denial of service vulnerability in the extractArchive function within src/infra/archive.ts that allows attackers to consume excessive CPU, memory, and disk resources through high-expansion ZIP and TAR archives. Remote attackers can trigger resource exhaustion by providing maliciously crafted archive files during install or update operations, causing service degradation or system unavailability.

Docling: Unsafe Archive Extraction and XML Parsing in METS-GBS Backend

Docling simplifies document processing by parsing diverse formats and providing integrations with the generative AI ecosystem. From 2.45.0 until 2.91.0, the METS-GBS backend's XML parsing and the input document format detection lacked security controls. An attacker could craft malicious METS-GBS archives that, when processed, could read sensitive files, exhaust system resources, or cause application crashes. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.91.0.
