CVE-2026-41407 Details
Description
OpenClaw before 2026.4.2 contains a timing side channel vulnerability in shared-secret comparison call sites that use early length-mismatch checks instead of fixed-length comparison helpers. Attackers can measure timing differences to leak secret-length information, weakening constant-time handling for shared secrets.
A timing side channel vulnerability has been identified in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.4.2. The issue arises in shared-secret comparison call sites that rely on early length-mismatch checks instead of using fixed-length comparison helpers. This vulnerability allows attackers to measure timing differences and infer secret-length information, thereby undermining the constant-time handling of shared secrets.
Users can upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.4.2 or later to address this vulnerability.
