Affected: OpenClaw

OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the /pair approve command path that fails to forward caller scopes into the core approval check. A caller with pairing privileges but without admin privileges can approve pending device requests asking for broader scopes including admin access by exploiting the missing scope validation in extensions/device-pair/index.ts and src/infra/device-pairing.ts.

 https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/ghsa-hc5h-pmr3-3497 GHSA-hc5h-pmr3-3497 — OpenClaw: /pair approve command path omitted caller scope subsetting and reopened device pairing escalation 2026-09-28T19:52:31.086491+00:00

Affected: npm: openclaw

## Summary

The `/pair approve` command path called device approval without forwarding caller scopes into the core approval check.

## Impact

A caller that held pairing privileges but not admin privileges could approve a pending device request asking for broader scopes, including admin access.

## Affected Component

`extensions/device-pair/index.ts, src/infra/device-pairing.ts`

## Fixed Versions

- Affected: `<= 2026.3.24` - Patched: `>= 2026.3.28` - Latest stable `2026.3.28` contains the fix.

## Fix

Fixed by commit `4ee4960de2` (`Pairing: forward caller scopes during approval`).
