CVE-2026-62217 Details
Description
OpenClaw 2026.5.14-beta.1 before 2026.5.27 contain an authorization flaw in the QQBot exec approvals feature. When the feature is enabled and reachable, a lower-trust caller or configured input path could execute or persist actions beyond the caller's intended authorization, allowing non-allowlisted senders to perform unauthorized operations.
An authorization vulnerability has been identified in OpenClaw versions 2026.5.14-beta.1 prior to 2026.5.27, specifically within the QQBot exec approvals feature. When this feature is enabled and accessible, it allows lower-trust callers or configured input paths to execute or persist actions beyond their intended authorization. This flaw enables non-allowlisted senders to perform unauthorized operations.
Users are advised to upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.5.27 or later. Before upgrading, it is recommended to restrict the QQBot exec approvals feature to trusted operators or disable it if not needed. As a general practice, maintain narrow channel and tool allowlists, avoid sharing a single Gateway between untrusted users, and disable the feature when it is unnecessary.
