OpenClaw before 2026.2.24 contains a sandbox network isolation bypass vulnerability that allows trusted operators to join another container's network namespace. Attackers can configure the docker.network parameter with container: values to reach services in target container namespaces and bypass network hardening controls.
CVE-2026-32038
This critical-severity CVE scores 9.8 under the CNA's CVSS (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit-prediction score not yet available (the EPSS model rescores nightly; freshly-published CVEs typically appear within 48 hours). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
