GHSA-xh9j-mpc9-2m9p: Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw has a Trusted-proxy Control UI pairing bypass which allows unpaired node sessions
(updated )
Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-vvgp-4c28-m3jm. This link is maintained to preserve external references.
Original Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in the trusted-proxy Control UI pairing mechanism that accepts client.id=control-ui without proper device identity verification. An authenticated node role websocket client can exploit this by using the control-ui client identifier to skip pairing requirements and gain unauthorized access to node event execution flows.
