CVE-2026-43574 Details
Description
OpenClaw before 2026.4.12 contains an improper authorization vulnerability in helper-backed channels where empty resolved approver lists are interpreted as explicit approval authorization. Attackers can resolve pending approvals without proper authorization by exploiting this logic flaw if they know an approval id.
A vulnerability exists in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.4.12, where empty approver lists in helper-backed channels are mistakenly treated as explicit approvals. This flaw allows unauthorized users to resolve pending approvals if they know the approval ID.
Users should upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.4.12 or later. The latest version available on npm, 2026.4.14, includes the necessary fix.
