Summary

OpenClaw: Matrix profile config persistence was reachable from operator.write message tools

Details

Summary

Matrix profile config persistence was reachable from operator.write message tools.

Affected Packages / Versions

Package: openclaw
Ecosystem: npm
Affected versions: < 2026.4.10
Patched versions: >= 2026.4.10

Impact

Gateway operator.write message-tool paths could reach Matrix profile persistence that should have required admin-level authority.

Technical Details

The fix gates Matrix profile updates for non-owner message-tool runs and prevents write-scoped callers from mutating persistent profile config.

Fix

The issue was fixed in #62662. The first stable tag containing the fix is v2026.4.10, and openclaw@2026.4.14 includes the fix.

Fix Commit(s)

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-17 22:15 – Updated: 2026-05-08 01:32

Summary

OpenClaw: Matrix profile config persistence was reachable from operator.write message tools

Details

Summary

Matrix profile config persistence was reachable from operator.write message tools.

Affected Packages / Versions

Package: openclaw
Ecosystem: npm

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
