In `security=allowlist` mode, that mismatch could skip the expected approval-required path for the shell wrapper invocation.\n\nLatest published npm version: `2026.3.2`\n\nFixed on `main` on March 7, 2026 in `2fc95a7cfc1eb9306356510b0251b6d51fb1c0b0` by keeping shell-wrapper classification active at the configured dispatch depth boundary and only failing closed beyond that boundary. This aligns approval gating with the execution plan. Legitimate shallow dispatch-wrapper usage continues to work.\n\n## Affected Packages / Versions\n\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm)\n- Affected versions: `<= 2026.3.2`\n- Patched version: `>= 2026.3.7`\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n\n- `2fc95a7cfc1eb9306356510b0251b6d51fb1c0b0`\n\n## Release Process Note\n\nnpm `2026.3.7` was published on March 8, 2026. This advisory is fixed in the released package.\n\nThanks @tdjackey for reporting.",
