OpenClaw < 2026.2.26 - Improper Authorization via DM Pairing Store Identity Inheritance in Group Allowlist

7.1 HighFix available

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.26 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability where DM pairing-store identities are incorrectly eligible for group allowlist authorization checks. Attackers can exploit this cross-context authorization flaw by using a sender approved via DM pairing to satisfy group sender allowlist checks without explicit presence in groupAllowFrom, bypassing group message access controls.

OpenClaw DM pairing-store identities could satisfy group allowlist authorization

Summary

DM pairing-store identities were incorrectly eligible for group allowlist authorization checks, enabling cross-context authorization in group message paths.

Details

In affected versions, group allowlist evaluation could inherit identities from the DM pairing store. A sender approved via DM pairing could satisfy group sender allowlist checks without being explicitly present in groupAllowFrom.

This is an authorization-policy boundary issue between DM pairing and group allowlists.

Affected Packages / Versions

  • openclaw (npm): affected <= 2026.2.25 (latest published npm version at triage time)
  • openclaw (npm): patched >= 2026.2.26 (planned next release)

Release Process Note

patched_versions is pre-set to the planned next release (2026.2.26) so once npm release is published, maintainers can publish the advisory without additional metadata edits.

Maintainer Timeline Note

Maintainers landed the initial fix before this report was filed; this report still provided useful independent confirmation of the issue class and exploit path.
