CVE-2026-34506

OpenClaw before 2026.3.8 contains a sender allowlist bypass vulnerability in its Microsoft Teams plugin that allows unauthorized senders to bypass intended authorization checks. When a team/channel route allowlist is configured with an empty groupAllowFrom parameter, the message handler synthesizes wildcard sender authorization, permitting any sender in the matched team/channel to trigger replies in allowlisted Teams routes.

When a team/channel route allowlist is configured with an empty groupAllowFrom parameter, the message handler synthesizes wildcard sender authorization, permitting any sender in the matched team/channel to trigger replies in allowlisted Teams routes.

OpenClaw's Microsoft Teams plugin widened group sender authorization when a team/channel route allowlist was configured but groupAllowFrom was empty. Before the fix, a matching route allowlist entry could cause the message handler to synthesize wildcard sender authorization for that route, allowing any sender in the matched team/channel to bypass the intended groupPolicy: "allowlist" sender check.

This does not affect default unauthenticated access, but it does weaken a documented Teams group authorization boundary and can allow unauthorized group senders to trigger replies in allowlisted Teams routes.
