CVE-2026-32029: OpenClaw improperly parses X-Forwarded-For behind trusted proxies allows client IP spoofing in security decisions
(updated )
OpenClaw used left-most X-Forwarded-For values when requests came from configured trusted proxies. In proxy chains that append/preserve header values, this could let attacker-controlled header content influence security decisions tied to client IP.
