GHSA-x49q-fhhm-r9jf: Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw: WebSocket shared-auth connections could self-declare elevated scopes
Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-rqpp-rjj8-7wv8. This link is maintained to preserve external references.
Original Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.3.12 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the WebSocket connect path that allows shared-token or password-authenticated connections to self-declare elevated scopes without server-side binding. Attackers can exploit this logic flaw to present unauthorized scopes such as operator.admin and perform admin-only gateway operations.
