EPSS · scored 2026-10-27

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 reuse gateway.auth.token as a fallback hash secret for owner-ID prompt obfuscation when commands.ownerDisplay is set to hash and commands.ownerDisplaySecret is unset, creating dual-use of authentication secrets across security domains. Attackers with access to system prompts sent to third-party model providers can derive the gateway authentication token from the hash outputs, compromising gateway authentication security.

  • WID-SEC-W-2026-0472OpenClaw: Mehrere SchwachstellenDeutsch2026-02-22csaf · cert_bundDE

    Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in OpenClaw ausnutzen, um beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen, sich erhöhte Berechtigungen zu verschaffen, Daten zu manipulieren, einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen oder andere nicht näher spezifizierte Angriffe durchzuführen.

  • GHSA-v6x2-2qvm-6gv8OpenClaw reuses the gateway auth token in the owner ID prompt hashing fallback2026-03-03ghsa · osvUS

    ## Vulnerability OpenClaw reused `gateway.auth.token` (and `gateway.remote.token`) as a fallback hash secret for owner-ID prompt obfuscation when `commands.ownerDisplay=hash` and `commands.ownerDisplaySecret` was unset. This created secret dual-use between gateway authentication and prompt metadata hashing. ## Impact - Auth-secret dual-use across security domains (gateway auth and prompt metadata hashing). - Hash outputs are visible to third-party model providers in system prompts. - No direct plaintext token disclosure. - Practical risk is highest when operators use weak gateway tokens and leave owner hash secret unset. ## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Latest affected published version: `2026.2.21-2` - Vulnerable range: `<= 2026.2.21-2` - Patched version (planned next release): `2026.2.22` ## Affected Components - `src/agents/cli-runner/helpers.ts` - `src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/run/attempt.ts` - `src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/compact.ts` ## Remediation - Added a shared owner-display resolver and secret-generation helper. - Removed fallback to `gateway.auth.token` and `gateway.remote.token`. - Auto-generates and persists a dedicated `commands.ownerDisplaySecret` when hash mode is enabled and secret is missing. ## Fix Commit(s) - c99e7696e6893083b256f0a6c88fb060f3a76fb7 ## Release Process Note `patched_versions` is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.22`). Once npm release `2026.2.22` is published, this advisory only needs to be published. OpenClaw thanks @aether-ai-agent for reporting.
