CVE-2026-53854: OpenClaw: Internal/webchat command auth could inherit ownerAllowFrom wildcard state
Internal/webchat command auth could inherit ownerAllowFrom wildcard state. In affected versions, a sender on an affected internal or webchat path could inherit wildcard ownerAllowFrom state across channel boundaries.
This advisory is scoped to the named feature and configuration. It does not change OpenClaw’s trusted-operator model: authenticated Gateway operators, installed plugins, and intentional local execution surfaces remain trusted unless a separate policy, approval, allowlist, sandbox, or auth boundary is crossed.
