This medium-severity CVE scores 5.0 under the CNA's CVSS (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.1%, top 98% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

OpenClaw versions 2026.4.5 before 2026.4.20 contain an environment variable injection vulnerability allowing workspace dotenv to override MINIMAX_API_HOST. Attackers can redirect credentialed MiniMax API requests to attacker-controlled origins, exposing the MiniMax API key in Authorization headers.
