OpenClaw's Trusted-proxy Control UI sessions retain privileged scopes without device identity on device-less allow paths

view advisory published 2026-03-26Licence: CC-BY-4.0

## Summary Trusted-proxy Control UI sessions without device identity could retain self-declared privileged scopes on the device-less allow path. ## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Affected: < 2026.3.22 - Fixed: >= 2026.3.22 - Latest released tag checked: `v2026.3.23-2` (`630f1479c44f78484dfa21bb407cbe6f171dac87`) - Latest published npm version checked: `2026.3.23-2` ## Fix Commit(s) - `ccf16cd8892402022439346ae1d23352e3707e9e` ## Release Status The fix shipped in `v2026.3.22` and remains present in `v2026.3.23` and `v2026.3.23-2`. ## Code-Level Confirmation - src/gateway/server/ws-connection/message-handler.ts now strips unbound self-declared scopes on the trusted-proxy no-device path. - src/gateway/server/ws-connection/connect-policy.ts remains the allow path, but the shipped scope scrub prevents privilege retention without device identity. OpenClaw thanks @nexrin for reporting.
