CVE-2026-22178
MEDIUMOpenClaw < 2026.2.19 - ReDoS and Regex Injection via Unescaped Feishu Mention Metadata
Title source: cnaDescription
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.19 construct RegExp objects directly from unescaped Feishu mention metadata in the stripBotMention function, allowing regex injection and denial of service. Attackers can craft nested-quantifier patterns or metacharacters in mention metadata to trigger catastrophic backtracking, block message processing, or remove unintended content before model processing.
