Summary

Gateway local shared-auth reconnect silently widens paired device scope from operator.read to operator.admin and reach node RCE

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

Silent local shared-auth reconnects could previously auto-approve scope-upgrade requests and widen a paired device from operator.read to operator.admin. Commit 81ebc7e0344fd19c85778e883bad45e2da972229 blocks silent reconnect scope upgrades so widened scopes require an explicit pairing approval instead of an implicit local reconnect path.

Verified vulnerable on tag v2026.3.24 and fixed on main by commit 81ebc7e0344fd19c85778e883bad45e2da972229.

Mô tả của NVD

OpenClaw before 2026.3.25 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability where silent local shared-auth reconnects auto-approve scope-upgrade requests, widening paired device permissions from operator.read to operator.admin. Attackers can exploit this by triggering local reconnection to silently escalate privileges and achieve remote code execution on the node.
