CVE-2026-32028 Details
Description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 fail to enforce dmPolicy and allowFrom authorization checks on Discord direct-message reaction notifications, allowing non-allowlisted users to enqueue reaction-derived system events. Attackers can exploit this inconsistency by reacting to bot-authored DM messages to bypass DM authorization restrictions and trigger downstream automation or tool policies.
A vulnerability exists in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25, where the application fails to properly enforce authorization checks on Discord direct-message reaction notifications. This oversight allows non-allowlisted users to bypass DM authorization restrictions by reacting to bot-authored messages, thereby triggering automated responses or tool policies. The issue arises because the reaction notification path does not apply the same authorization gates as the regular DM message ingress, creating a inconsistency that can be exploited in restrictive DM setups.
Users can update to OpenClaw version 2026.2.25 or later, where this vulnerability has been addressed.
