Openclaw: >> Openclaw >> 2026.3.1 Security Vulnerabilities
OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 contains a resource consumption vulnerability in Telegram audio preflight transcription that allows unauthorized group senders to trigger transcription processing. Attackers can exploit insufficient allowlist enforcement to cause resource or billing consumption by initiating audio preflight operations before authorization checks are applied.

OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the marketplace plugin download functionality that allows attackers to access internal resources by following unvalidated redirects. The marketplace.ts module fails to restrict redirect destinations during archive downloads, enabling remote attackers to redirect requests to arbitrary internal or external servers.

OpenClaw before 2026.4.2 fails to enforce write scopes on the POST /sessions/:sessionKey/kill endpoint in identity-bearing HTTP modes. Read-scoped callers can terminate running subagent sessions by sending requests to this endpoint, bypassing authorization controls.

OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the chat.send gateway method where ACP-only provenance fields are gated by self-declared client metadata from WebSocket handshake rather than verified authorization state. Authenticated operator clients can spoof ACP identity labels and inject reserved provenance fields intended only for the ACP bridge by manipulating client metadata during connection.

OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 contains a trust-decline vulnerability that preserves attacker-discovered endpoints in remote onboarding flows. Attackers can route gateway credentials to malicious endpoints by having their discovered URL survive the trust decline process into manual prompts requiring operator acceptance.

OpenClaw versions 2026.3.22 before 2026.3.31 contain a signature verification bypass vulnerability in the Nostr DM ingress path that allows pairing challenges to be issued before event signature validation. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send forged direct messages to create pending pairing entries and trigger pairing-reply attempts, consuming shared pairing capacity and triggering bounded relay and logging work on the Nostr channel.

OpenClaw before 2026.4.2 accepts non-loopback cleartext ws:// gateway endpoints and transmits stored gateway credentials over unencrypted connections. Attackers can forge discovery results or craft setup codes to redirect clients to malicious endpoints, disclosing plaintext gateway credentials.

OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 loads the current working directory .env file before trusted state-dir configuration, allowing environment variable injection. Attackers can place a malicious .env file in a repository or workspace to override runtime configuration and security-sensitive environment settings during OpenClaw startup.

OpenClaw before 2026.4.2 contains an improper trust boundary vulnerability allowing untrusted workspace channel shadows to execute during built-in channel setup and login. Attackers can clone a workspace with a malicious plugin claiming a bundled channel id to achieve unintended in-process code execution before the plugin is explicitly trusted.
