GHSA-h9g4-589h-68xv: OpenClaw has an authentication bypass in sandbox browser bridge server
openclaw could start the sandbox browser bridge server without authentication.
When the sandboxed browser is enabled, openclaw runs a local (loopback) HTTP bridge that exposes browser control endpoints (for example /profiles, /tabs, /tabs/open, /agent/*). Due to missing auth wiring in the sandbox initialization path, that bridge server accepted requests without requiring gateway auth.
