That positional could be a bare filename like `.env`.\n\n### Affected Packages / Versions\n\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm)\n- Latest published vulnerable version: `2026.2.19-2`\n- Structured vulnerable range: `= 2026.2.21`\n\n### Exploit Preconditions\n\n- `tools.exec.safeBins` must include `grep` (this is opt-in; `grep` is not in the default safe-bin list).\n- An actor must be able to invoke exec tooling under that profile.\n\n### Technical Details\n\n`src/infra/exec-safe-bin-policy.ts` configured `grep` with `maxPositional: 1` and allowed `-e` / `--regexp` value flags.\nBecause `-e` consumes the pattern in flag-value position, the remaining positional budget could be used for a file operand.\nExample accepted input in vulnerable builds:\n\n```bash\ngrep -e SECRET .env\n```\n\nThat violated the intended stdin-only guarantee for safe bins.\n\n### Impact\n\nWith `grep` opt-in enabled, callers could read bare-relative file","public_affected_ranges":["< 2026.2.21"]}],"null_published_at":"2026-11-07T07:07:39.840Z","source_updated_at":"2026-06-08T23:23:41.000Z","source_disclosed_at":"2026-03-03T19:09:20.000Z","is_synthetic_fixture":false,"null_last_reviewed_at":null,"public_change_summary":"First indexed by Null; source disclosure date is shown separately.","null_first_observed_at":"2026-11-07T00:51:53.608Z"}],"next_cursor":null,"snapshot_revision":"42594"}
