In many deployments, plugin installation is an operator-only action and may be performed on a separate machine; that operational separation significantly reduces exposure for the primary gateway/runtime host.\n\nOn hosts where untrusted plugins are installed, this can lead to unintended file writes outside the extensions directory (potentially overwriting files under the OpenClaw state directory). On Windows, the traversal surface may extend further, within the privileges of the user running OpenClaw.\n\n### Fix\n\nFixed in `openclaw` `2026.2.1` by validating plugin IDs and ensuring the resolved install directory remains within the configured extensions base directory.\n\n### Fix Commit(s)\n\n- d03eca8450dc493b198a88b105fd180895238e57\n\nThanks @logicx24 for reporting.", "title": "osv -
