OpenClaw before 2026.4.20 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in QQBot direct media upload that skips URL validation. Attackers can bypass SSRF protections by sending crafted image URLs to uploadC2CMedia and uploadGroupMedia endpoints to relay unintended requests.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.22 derives loopback MCP owner context from spoofable server-issued bearer tokens in request headers. Non-owner loopback clients can present themselves as owner to bypass owner-gated operations by manipulating the sender-owner header metadata.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.10 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in browser navigation policy that allows attackers to bypass hostname validation through DNS rebinding attacks. Attackers can exploit inconsistent hostname resolution between validation and actual network requests to pivot to internal resources via unallowlisted hostname URLs.
OpenClaw versions 2026.4.10 before 2026.4.14 fail to persist session context during delivery queue recovery for media replay. Attackers can exploit recovered queued outbound media to bypass group tool policy enforcement and weaken channel media restrictions after service restart or recovery.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.10 contains an insufficient environment variable denylist vulnerability in its exec environment policy that allows operator-supplied overrides of high-risk interpreter startup variables including VIMINIT, EXINIT, LUA_INIT, and HOSTALIASES. Attackers can exploit this by manipulating these environment variables to influence downstream execution behavior or network connectivity.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.15 captures resolved bearer-auth configuration at startup, allowing revoked tokens to remain valid after SecretRef rotation. Gateway HTTP and WebSocket handlers fail to re-resolve authentication per-request, enabling attackers to use rotated-out bearer tokens for unauthorized gateway access.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.15 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in Feishu webhook and card-action validation that allows unauthenticated requests to reach command dispatch. Missing encryptKey configuration and blank callback tokens fail open instead of rejecting requests, enabling attackers to bypass signature verification and replay protection to execute arbitrary commands.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.15 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in Matrix room control-command authorization that trusts DM pairing-store entries. Attackers with DM-paired sender IDs can execute room control commands without being in configured allowlists by posting in bot rooms, potentially enabling privileged OpenClaw behavior.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.15 contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the QMD backend memory_get function that allows callers to read any Markdown files within the workspace root. Attackers with access to the memory tool can bypass path restrictions by providing arbitrary workspace Markdown paths to read files outside canonical memory locations or indexed QMD result sets.
OpenClaw versions 2026.2.21 before 2026.4.10 contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in the sandbox noVNC helper route that exposes interactive browser session credentials. Attackers can access the noVNC helper route without bridge authentication to gain unauthorized access to the interactive browser session.
