CVE-2026-32001 Details
Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 contain an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows clients authenticated with a shared gateway token to connect as role=node without device identity verification. Attackers can exploit this by claiming the node role during WebSocket handshake to inject unauthorized node.event calls, triggering agent.request and voice.transcript flows without proper device pairing.
An authentication bypass vulnerability has been identified in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22. This vulnerability allows clients authenticated with a shared gateway token to connect as 'role=node' without verifying device identity. Exploitation occurs during the WebSocket handshake, where the lack of device pairing enables unauthorized injection of 'node.event' calls, triggering 'agent.request' and 'voice.transcript' flows.
Users should upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.2.22 or later, once available. The patched version requires device identity for 'role=node' WebSocket connections, even when shared-token authentication is successful.
