CVE-2026-41358: OpenClaw: Slack thread context could include messages from non-allowlisted senders
Before OpenClaw 2026.4.2, Slack thread starter and thread-history context fetched through the API was not filtered by the effective sender allowlist. Messages from non-allowlisted senders could still enter the agent context when an allowlisted user replied in the same thread.
