OpenClaw: Feishu card actions could misclassify DMs and skip dmPolicy
Affected Packages / Versions
- Package:
openclaw(npm) - Affected versions:
< 2026.4.20 - Patched version:
2026.4.20
Impact
Feishu card-action callbacks could synthesize a message event with DM conversations classified as group conversations. That skipped dmPolicy enforcement for card actions, so a sender in a Feishu DM could trigger card-action flows that should have been blocked by a restrictive DM policy.
The issue is limited to Feishu card-action handling. Severity is medium.
Fix
OpenClaw now resolves Feishu card-action chat type before dispatch, including API lookup when stored context is unavailable, and avoids falling through to group handling for DMs.
Fix commit:
90979d7c3ef7ec30b9f8aa6963a5e38d2f17d166
Release
Fixed in OpenClaw 2026.4.20.
