This flaw stems from the application&rsquo;s insecure handling of environment variables. Specifically, the OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_HOOKS_DIR environment variable, which dictates the directory from which OpenClaw loads bundled hooks, can be overridden by a workspace-specific .env file. This allows a malicious actor to craft a .env file within an untrusted workspace that points to a directory containing attacker-controlled hook code. Upon loading the workspace, OpenClaw will execute the malicious code, effectively granting the attacker arbitrary code execution within the application&rsquo;s context. This vulnerability poses a significant risk to systems utilizing OpenClaw, as it can lead to complete system compromise.</p>
<h2 id="attack-chain">Attack Chain</h2>
<ol>
<li>The attacker creates a malicious hook code file (e.g., <code>evil_hook.py</code>) containing arbitrary code to be executed.</li>
<li>The attacker creates a directory (e.g., <code>/tmp/evil_hooks</code>) and places the malicious hook code file within it.</li>
<li>The attacker crafts a <code>.env</code> file containing the line <code>OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_HOOKS_DIR=/tmp/evil_hooks</code>.</li>
<li>The attacker places the malicious <code>.env</code> file into a workspace that a victim user is likely to open within OpenClaw.</li>
<li>The victim user opens the workspace within OpenClaw.</li>
<li>OpenClaw reads the <code>.env</code> file and overrides the default <code>OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_HOOKS_DIR</code> with the attacker-controlled path <code>/tmp/evil_hooks</code>.</li>
<li>OpenClaw loads and executes the malicious hook code from <code>evil_hook.py</code>, granting the attacker arbitrary code execution.</li>
<li>The attacker gains control of the OpenClaw process and potentially the underlying system.</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="impact">Impact</h2>
<p>Successful exploitation of CVE-2026-41336 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code within the context of the OpenClaw application. This could lead to the complete compromise of the affected system, including data theft, modification, or destruction. Given the nature of the vulnerability, any system running a vulnerable version of OpenClaw is at risk if it processes untrusted workspaces. The CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.8 reflects the high potential impact of this vulnerability.</p>

The vulnerability arises from an error in the <code>smb2_calc_max_out_buf_len()</code> function where a hardcoded value for <code>hdr2_len</code> is used instead of calculating it dynamically using <code>offsetof()</code>. While specific exploitation details are not provided in the source, the incorrect buffer calculation could lead to memory corruption or other unexpected behavior, potentially allowing a remote attacker to cause a denial-of-service condition or, in a more severe scenario, execute arbitrary code on the affected system. The vulnerability was disclosed on 2026-04-23 as part of a Microsoft Security Update.</p>
<h2 id="attack-chain">Attack Chain</h2>
<p>Due to the limited information available, the following attack chain is based on the potential exploitation of a memory corruption vulnerability resulting from an incorrect buffer length calculation.</p>
<ol>
<li>An attacker identifies a vulnerable ksmbd server.</li>
<li>The attacker crafts a malicious SMBv2 request specifically designed to trigger the flawed <code>smb2_calc_max_out_buf_len()</code> function.</li>
<li>When the <code>smb2_calc_max_out_buf_len()</code> function is called to calculate the maximum output buffer length for the response to the malicious request, it uses an incorrect value for <code>hdr2_len</code> due to the hardcoded value.</li>
<li>This incorrect calculation leads to the allocation of an undersized buffer.</li>
<li>The server attempts to write data exceeding the allocated buffer size into the undersized buffer.</li>
<li>This buffer overflow corrupts adjacent memory regions.</li>
<li>Depending on the corrupted data, the server may crash (denial-of-service), or the attacker may gain control of execution flow (remote code execution).</li>
<li>The attacker executes arbitrary code on the server, potentially leading to data exfiltration, system compromise, or further lateral movement within the network.</li>

The vulnerability, identified as CVE-2026-32936, stems from the server&rsquo;s excessive processing of oversized <code>dns=</code> query parameters in GET requests to the <code>/dns-query</code> endpoint. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by sending specially crafted, oversized requests, forcing the server to expend significant CPU resources, allocate large amounts of memory, and increase garbage collection overhead before ultimately rejecting the request with a <code>400 Bad Request</code> error. This pre-validation processing weakness can degrade the server&rsquo;s performance, impacting its ability to respond to legitimate requests, and potentially leading to a complete denial of service, especially in memory-constrained environments. The vulnerability affects CoreDNS versions prior to 1.14.3.</p>
<h2 id="attack-chain">Attack Chain</h2>
<ol>
<li>The attacker crafts an HTTP GET request to the <code>/dns-query</code> endpoint.</li>
<li>The crafted request includes a <code>dns=</code> query parameter with an extremely large, base64 encoded value.</li>
<li>CoreDNS receives the request and parses the HTTP request line using <code>net/http.readRequest</code>.</li>
<li>The server parses the URL and extracts the value of the <code>dns</code> query parameter via <code>req.URL.Query()</code> within the <code>requestToMsgGet</code> function.</li>
<li>The extracted base64-encoded value is passed to the <code>base64ToMsg</code> function for decoding.</li>
<li>The <code>base64ToMsg</code> function uses <code>b64Enc.DecodeString()</code> to decode the oversized base64 string, consuming significant CPU and memory.</li>
<li>The decoded data is then passed to <code>m.Unpack()</code> to unpack it into a DNS message, further increasing resource consumption.</li>
<li>Only after these resource-intensive operations, CoreDNS determines that the request is invalid and returns a <code>400 Bad Request</code> error, having already expended significant server resources.</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="impact">Impact</h2>
<p>Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to a denial-of-service condition. Attackers can repeatedly send oversized DoH GET requests, leading to:</p>
<ul>
