OpenClaw macOS desktop client registers the `openclaw:\/\/` URL scheme. For `openclaw:\/\/agent` deep links without an unattended `key`, the app shows a confirmation dialog that previously displayed only the first 240 characters of the message, but executed the full message after the user clicked &#8220;Run.&#8221; At the time of writing, the OpenClaw macOS desktop client is still in beta. In versions 2026.2.6 through 2026.2.13, an attacker could pad the message with whitespace to push a malicious payload outside the visible preview, increasing the chance a user approves a different message than the one that is actually executed. If a user runs the deep link, the agent may perform actions that can lead to arbitrary command execution depending on the user&#8217;s configured tool approvals\/allowlists. This is a social-engineering mediated vulnerability: the confirmation prompt could be made to misrepresent the executed message. The issue is fixed in 2026.2.14. Other mitigations include not approve unexpected &#8220;Run OpenClaw agent?&#8221; prompts triggered while browsing untrusted sites and usingunattended deep links only with a valid `key` for trusted personal automations.<\/p>\n<p>Severity: 0.0 | NA<\/p>\n<p>Visit the link for more details, such as CVSS details, affected products, timeline, and more&#8230;\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CVE ID : CVE-2026-26320 Published : Feb. 19, 2026, 10:24 p.m. | 36\u00a0minutes ago Description : OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant.
