      <title>CVE-2026-42429 — OpenClaw &lt; 2026.4.8 - Privilege Escalation via Gateway Plugin HTTP Authentication</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-42429</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; OpenClaw&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the gateway plugin HTTP authentication mechanism that escalates identity-bearing operator.read requests to runtime operator.write permissions. Attackers can exploit this by sending read-scoped requests through the gateway auth route to gain unauthorized write access to runtime operations.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>GHSA-4f8g-77mw-3rxc — OpenClaw: Gateway plugin HTTP `auth: gateway` widens identity-bearing `operator.read` requests into runtime `operator.w…</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/ghsa-4f8g-77mw-3rxc</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; npm: openclaw&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Impact&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gateway plugin HTTP `auth: gateway` widens identity-bearing `operator.read` requests into runtime `operator.write`.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Plugin HTTP routes using gateway auth could receive runtime write scopes even when the upstream trusted-proxy request only declared read.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OpenClaw is a user-controlled local assistant. This advisory is scoped to the OpenClaw trust model and does not assume a multi-tenant service boundary.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Affected Packages / Versions&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- Package: `openclaw` (npm)
- Affected versions: `2026.1.29`
- Patched versions: `2026.4.8`&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Fix&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The issue was fixed on `main` and is available in the patched npm version listed above. The verified fixed tree is commit `d7c3210cd6f5fdfdc1beff4c9541673e814354d5`.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Verification&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fix was re-checked against `main` before publication, including targeted regression tests for the affected security boundary.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Credits&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks @smaeljaish771 for reporting.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
