Security Review findings
Review detailsBest possible solution: Route every browser-originated JSON text result covered by the browser tool boundary, including Do we have a high-confidence way to reproduce the issue? Yes from source inspection: Is this the best way to solve the issue? No as written: the patch is an acceptable partial mitigation for snapshot/tabs/console text, but the best fix is to make the browser output neutralization boundary cover Full review comments:
Overall correctness: patch is incorrect AGENTS.md: found and applied where relevant. Codex review notes: model gpt-5.5, reasoning high; reviewed against 9a82b60024b5. Label changesLabel changes:

Shiny media proof means a screenshot, video, or linked artifact directly shows the changed behavior. Runtime, network, CSP, and security claims still need visible diagnostics. How this review workflow works

Summary
MEDIA:directives before browser-originated snapshot and tabs text is returned to agents.detailsfor callers.Linked context
Maintainer-requested browser tool hardening.
Real behavior proof (required for external PRs)
Behavior addressed: Browser-controlled text returned by the browser tool can no longer surface line-start
MEDIA:directives unchanged in model-facing output.Real environment tested: Local OpenClaw source checkout with an isolated dev Gateway, managed Playwright Chromium, and a loopback HTTP page exercising the browser tool's live ARIA snapshot path.
Exact steps or command run after this patch:
pnpm exec playwright install chromium;pnpm exec playwright install-deps chromium;pnpm openclaw --dev config set browser.noSandbox true;pnpm openclaw --dev config set browser.headless true;pnpm openclaw --dev config set browser.ssrfPolicy.allowedHostnames '["127.0.0.1"]';pnpm openclaw --dev gateway run --dev --force --auth none --bind loopback --ws-log compact;python3 -m http.server 8765 --bind 127.0.0.1 --directory /tmp/openclaw-browser-proof;OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH=/home/ubuntu/.openclaw-dev/openclaw.json pnpm tsx /tmp/openclaw-browser-proof/proof.ts;node scripts/run-vitest.mjs extensions/browser/src/browser-tool.test.ts.Evidence after fix: The live browser proof opened
http://127.0.0.1:8765/throughcreateBrowserTool, captured an ARIA snapshot from page-controlled text containing a newline followed byMEDIA:/tmp/openclaw-proof.png, and returnedariaWrapped: true,ariaHasNeutralizedDirective: true,ariaHasRawEscapedDirective: false,ariaDetailsKind: "snapshot", andariaNodeCount: 21. The focused browser tool test shard also passed with 69 tests.Observed result after fix: Browser snapshot output is wrapped as external content with the page-controlled line-start media directive neutralized before model-facing delivery; structured snapshot details remain available for callers.
What was not tested: Manual channel rendering was not exercised; the live proof targets the browser agent-tool output boundary changed by this PR.
Proof limitations or environment constraints: Runtime proof used a local loopback page and a dev browser profile with loopback explicitly allowlisted.
Before evidence (optional but encouraged): Existing tests covered external wrapping and screenshot vision defanging, but not these browser action output paths.
Tests and validation
node scripts/run-vitest.mjs extensions/browser/src/browser-tool.test.tscreateBrowserToolagainst a loopback page with page-controlled newlineMEDIA:content.Regression coverage was added for AI snapshot text, ARIA snapshot JSON string fields, and tabs JSON string fields.
Risk checklist
Did user-visible behavior change? (
Yes/No): Yes, browser tool text output now prefixes line-startMEDIA:directives from page-controlled content with[neutralized].Did config, environment, or migration behavior change? (
Yes/No): No.Did security, auth, secrets, network, or tool execution behavior change? (
Yes/No): Yes, this changes browser tool output sanitization only.What is the highest-risk area? Browser tool consumers that inspect exact returned text.
How is that risk mitigated? Structured
detailsare preserved unchanged, and the text-only change matches the existing screenshot vision sanitization behavior.Current review state
What is the next action? Await GitHub Actions and reviewer confirmation of the added live browser proof.
What is still waiting on author, maintainer, CI, or external proof? GitHub Actions and maintainer review.
Which bot or reviewer comments were addressed? Added live browser runtime proof requested by the automated review.
