LOW

OpenClaw < 2026.2.26 - Authorization Bypass via DM Pairing-Store Fallback in Group Allowlist

Title source: cna
STIX 2.1

Description

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.26 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability where DM pairing-store identities are incorrectly treated as group allowlist identities when dmPolicy=pairing and groupPolicy=allowlist. Remote attackers can send messages and reactions as DM-paired identities without explicit groupAllowFrom membership to bypass group sender authorization checks.
