CVE-2026-62220 Details
Description
OpenClaw 2026.2.25 before 2026.5.26 allow a lower-trust caller or configured input path to bypass non-browser rate limits on WebSocket authentication attempts. When the affected feature is enabled and reachable by lower-trust input, this can consume gateway resources and reduce service availability.
A vulnerability in OpenClaw versions 2026.2.25 prior to 2026.5.26 allows lower-trust callers or configured input paths to bypass non-browser rate limits on WebSocket authentication attempts. This can lead to increased resource consumption on gateway services, potentially degrading availability. The issue arises when the affected feature is enabled and accessible by lower-trust input.
Users are advised to upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.5.26 or later. Before upgrading, it is recommended to restrict the affected feature to trusted operators or disable it if not needed. As a general practice, keep channel and tool allowlists narrow, avoid sharing one Gateway between mutually untrusted users, and disable the affected feature when it is not required.
