Other vulnerabilities in NanoClaw
See all- CVE-2026-56694Medium
NanoClaw before version 2.1.0 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the channel-registration approval flow where handleChannelApprovalResponse fails to validate admin privileges over target agent groups.
- CVE-2026-56693Medium
NanoClaw before version 2.1.17 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the create_agent delivery-action handler that performs privileged central-database writes without host-side authorization checks. Confined agent containers can invoke create_agent to create arbitrary agent groups, container configurations, and destinations, escalating beyond their intended confinement boundary.
- CVE-2026-56402Medium
NanoClaw before 2.1.17 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the handleApprovalsResponse function that fails to verify responder role authorization. Attackers with a valid questionId can approve or reject privileged actions like package installation by submitting approval response payloads without proper role validation.
- CVE-2026-19005Medium
A vulnerability in nanocoai NanoClaw up to 2.0.64 affects the function handleCreateAgent in src/modules/agent-to-agent/create-agent.ts, causing improper privilege management. Remote exploitation is possible and exploit is public.
- CVE-2026-18991High
A vulnerability was detected in nanocoai NanoClaw up to 2.0.64, affecting an unknown part of the file container/agent-runner/src/mcp-tools/core.ts in the send_file component. Manipulation leads to path traversal, allowing remote attack. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be used.
- CVE-2026-17434Medium
In nanocoai NanoClaw up to version 2.0.64, a vulnerability was found in the handleAddMcpServer function of the file src/modules/self-mod/request.ts in the add_mcp_server component. Manipulation leads to improper authorization. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been published. A patch is available with ID e5b928783d5c485637565eb07d2967922dfbf8d8.
- CVE-2026-56692Medium
NanoClaw before version 2.1.17 contains a symlink following vulnerability in forwardAttachedFiles that allows container-controlled agents to exfiltrate host-readable files. The host validates attachment filenames using only isSafeAttachmentName, which allows malicious agents to disclose arbitrary host files.
