CVE-2026-22181

OpenClaw < 2026.3.2 - DNS Pinning Bypass via Environment Proxy Configuration in web_fetch

Published Mar 18, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 6.1 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.3.2 contain a DNS pinning bypass vulnerability in strict URL fetch paths that allows attackers to circumvent SSRF guards when environment proxy variables are configured. When HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, or ALL_PROXY environment variables are present, attacker-influenced URLs can be routed through proxy behavior instead of pinned-destination routing, enabling access to internal targets reachable from the proxy environment.
