{"id":"CVE-2026-32898","summary":"OpenClaw \u003c 2026.2.23 - ACP Permission Auto-Approval Bypass via Untrusted Tool Metadata","details":"OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.23 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the ACP client that auto-approves tool calls based on untrusted toolCall.kind metadata and permissive name heuristics. Attackers can bypass interactive approval prompts for read-class operations by spoofing tool metadata or using non-core read-like names to reach auto-approve paths.","aliases":["GHSA-7jx5-9fjg-hp4m"],"modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:46.696622770Z","published":"2026-03-21T00:42:33.718Z","database_specific":{"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/32xxx/CVE-2026-32898.json","cna_assigner":"VulnCheck","cwe_ids":["CWE-807"]},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/32xxx/CVE-2026-32898.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-7jx5-9fjg-hp4m"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-32898"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/openclaw-acp-permission-auto-approval-bypass-via-untrusted-tool-metadata"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/12cc754332f9a7c92e158ce7644aa22df79c0904"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/63dcd28ae0be2de1c75af09cc81841cebeec068f"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"b817600533129771ace2801d7c05901c7f850fb8"},{"fixed":"12cc754332f9a7c92e158ce7644aa22df79c0904"},{"fixed":"63dcd28ae0be2de1c75af09cc81841cebeec068f"}],"database_specific":{"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2026.2.23"}],"source":["CPE_RANGE","REFERENCES"],"cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:openclaw:openclaw:*:*:*:*:*:node.js:*:*"}}],"versions":["v2026.2.23-beta.1","v2026.2.22","v2026.2.22-beta.1","v2026.2.21","v2026.2.21-beta.1","v2026.2.19-beta.1","v2026.2.19","v2026.2.17","v2026.2.15-beta.1","v2026.2.14","v2026.2.13","v2026.2.12","v2026.2.9","v2026.2.6-3","v2026.2.6-2","v2026.2.6-1","v2026.2.6","v2026.2.3","v2026.2.2","v2026.2.1","v2026.1.30","v2026.1.29","v2026.1.24-1","v2026.1.24","v2026.1.23","v2026.1.22","v2026.1.21","v2026.1.20","v2026.1.16-2","v2026.1.15","v2026.1.14-1","v2026.1.13","v2026.1.12-2","v2026.1.12","v2026.1.11-3","v2026.1.11-2","v2026.1.11-1","v2026.1.11","v2026.1.10","v2026.1.9","v2026.1.8","v2026.1.5-3","v2026.1.5-2","v2026.1.5-1","v2026.1.5","v2.0.0-beta5","v2.0.0-beta4","v2.0.0-beta3","v2.0.0-beta2","v2.0.0-beta1","v1.3.0","v1.2.2","v1.2.1","v1.2.0","v1.1.0","v1.0.4","v0.1.3","v0.1.2","v0.1.1","v0.1.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-32898.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]}
