BREW-openclaw-cli-CVE-2026-22177 — OpenClaw's config env vars allowed startup env injection into service runtime

Affected: Homebrew: openclaw-cli

### Summary OpenClaw allowed dangerous process-control environment variables from `env.vars` (for example `NODE_OPTIONS`, `LD_*`, `DYLD_*`) to flow into gateway service runtime environments, enabling startup-time code execution in the OpenClaw process context.

### Details `collectConfigEnvVars()` accepted unfiltered keys from config and those values were merged into the daemon install environment in `buildGatewayInstallPlan()`. Before the fix, startup-control variables were not blocked in this path.

### Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Latest published affected version: `2026.2.19-2` (published February 19, 2026) - Affected range (structured): `<=2026.2.19-2 || =2026.2.19` - Patched version (pre-set for next release): `>= 2026.2.21`

### Fix Commit(s) - `2cdbadee1f8fcaa93302d7debbfc529e19868ea4`

### Release Process Note `patched_versions` is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.21`). Once that npm release is published, this advisory is ready to publish without further content edits.

OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.21 fail to filter dangerous process-control environment variables from config env.vars, allowing startup-time code execution. Attackers can inject variables like NODE_OPTIONS or LD_* through configuration to execute arbitrary code in the OpenClaw gateway service runtime context.
