CVE-2026-53841
Description
OpenClaw before 2026.5.12 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in exported session HTML that preserves unsafe javascript: and data: links in generated content. Attackers can execute browser-side scripts if a trusted operator opens the exported file and activates a malicious link.
Summary dbcve.org
OpenClaw before version 2026.5.12 has a stored XSS vulnerability in its session HTML export feature. The exported HTML files preserve unsafe javascript: and data: URI schemes in links, allowing attackers to embed malicious links that execute arbitrary JavaScript when a trusted user opens the exported file and clicks the malicious link.
Mitigation
Upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.5.12 or later, which implements proper sanitization of links in exported HTML to remove unsafe URI schemes. Until upgraded, users should avoid clicking untrusted links in exported session files.
