OpenClaw affected by SSRF via unguarded image download in fal provider

Summary

The fal provider used raw fetches for both provider API traffic and returned image download URLs instead of the existing SSRF-guarded fetch path.

Impact

A malicious or compromised fal relay could make the gateway fetch internal URLs and expose metadata or internal service responses through the image pipeline.

Affected Component

extensions/fal/image-generation-provider.ts

Fixed Versions

• Affected: <= 2026.3.24
• Patched: >= 2026.3.28
• Latest stable 2026.3.28 contains the fix.

Fix

Fixed by commit 80d1e8a11a (fal: guard image fetches).

OpenClaw thanks @AntAISecurityLab for reporting.
