9th percentile - higher than 9% of all known CVEs

Summary

ZeroClaw before version 0.8.5 (with plugins-wasm feature) contains a path traversal vulnerability in plugin installation that fails to validate the wasm_path manifest field. Attackers can trick users into installing crafted plugins that write arbitrary files outside the plugins directory, such as shell startup files, enabling code execution.

Risk Assessment

A user installing a malicious plugin can expose the system to arbitrary code execution, potentially leading to full system compromise and takeover.

Recommendation

Upgrade ZeroClaw to version 0.8.5 or later, which includes a fix for path validation in plugin installation. Avoid installing plugins from untrusted sources.
