highpriority · track · 30EPSS 0.004 · 38 %ileDEEUUSEPSS · scored 2026-10-27
OpenClaw before 2026.3.25 parses JSON request bodies before validating webhook signatures, allowing unauthenticated attackers to force resource-intensive parsing operations. Remote attackers can send malicious webhook requests to trigger denial of service by exhausting server resources through forced JSON parsing before signature rejection.

## Summary Feishu webhook reads and parses unauthenticated request bodies before signature validation ## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` - Affected versions: `<= 2026.3.24` - First patched version: `2026.3.25` - Latest published npm version at verification time: `2026.3.24` ## Details Feishu webhook handling previously parsed JSON before signature validation, which let unauthenticated callers force full JSON parsing work before rejection. Commit `5e8cb22176e9235e224be0bc530699261eb60e53` reads the raw request body, validates the signature first, and only then parses JSON. Verified vulnerable on tag `v2026.3.24` and fixed on `main` by commit `5e8cb22176e9235e224be0bc530699261eb60e53`. ## Fix Commit(s) - `5e8cb22176e9235e224be0bc530699261eb60e53`
