OpenClaw's Conflicting Tool Identity Hints Bypass Dangerous-Tool Prompting
## Summary ACP permission resolution trusted conflicting tool identity hints from rawInput and metadata, which could suppress dangerous-tool prompting. ## 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) - `e4c61723cd2d530680cc61789311d464ab8cdf60` ## 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/acp/client.ts now fails closed when meta, rawInput, and title tool identities conflict instead of trusting spoofable raw input. - src/acp/client.test.ts ships regressions for conflicting tool identity hints and dangerous-tool prompting. OpenClaw thanks @zpbrent for reporting.
