Vulnerability Data

OpenClaw before 2026.6.6 contains a policy bypass vulnerability in browser CDP discovery that accepts blocked WebSocket URLs. Attackers with lower-trust access can reach network destinations that should have been blocked by OpenClaw policy when the affected feature is enabled.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
Why these techniques?

SSRF policy bypass (CWE-918) in exposed CDP/WebSocket handling directly enables exploitation of a public-facing application to reach otherwise-blocked network destinations.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly enforces the OpenClaw network access policy that the CDP WebSocket discovery feature bypasses.

prevent

Implements boundary controls that block unauthorized WebSocket connections to destinations the policy intends to restrict.

prevent

Enforces information flow rules on WebSocket URLs to prevent the SSRF-style policy bypass described in the CVE.
