OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant. Prior to version 2026.2.15, a configuration injection issue in the Docker tool sandbox could allow dangerous Docker options (bind mounts, host networking, unconfined profiles) to be applied, enabling container escape or host data access. OpenClaw 2026.2.15 blocks dangerous sandbox Docker settings and includes runtime enforcement when building docker create args; config-schema validation for network=host, seccompProfile=unconfined, apparmorProfile=unconfined; and security audit findings to surface dangerous sandbox docker config. As a workaround, do not configure agents.*.sandbox.docker.binds to mount system directories or Docker socket paths, keep agents.*.sandbox.docker.network at none (default) or bridge, and do not use unconfined for seccomp/AppArmor profiles.
