CVE-2026-31994 is a local command injection vulnerability affecting OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.19 on Windows. The flaw arises during generation of Windows scheduled task scripts, specifically in the handling of values written into gateway.cmd files. User-controllable service script generation arguments are incorporated without safe neutralization of cmd.exe metacharacters and other expansion-sensitive characters. As a result, an attacker who can influence those arguments can supply metacharacter-only input or CR/LF sequences to break the intended command structure and inject additional commands. Those injected commands are then executed when the scheduled task runs, in the security context assigned to that task.
