Commit `d3d8e316bd819d3c7e34253aeb7eccb2510f5f48` removes the backend self-pairing skip and requires pairing when requested scopes exceed the approved baseline.\n\nVerified vulnerable on tag `v2026.3.24` and fixed on `main` by commit `d3d8e316bd819d3c7e34253aeb7eccb2510f5f48`.\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n\n- `d3d8e316bd819d3c7e34253aeb7eccb2510f5f48`","aliases":["CVE-2026-35663"],"modified":"2026-04-10T17:42:21.007869Z","published":"2026-03-27T22:29:12Z","database_specific":{"nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-269","CWE-863"],"severity":"CRITICAL","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-03-27T22:29:12Z"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-9hjh-fr4f-gxc4"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/d3d8e316bd819d3c7e34253aeb7eccb2510f5f48"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"openclaw","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/openclaw"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"2026.3.24"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/03/GHSA-9hjh-fr4f-gxc4/GHSA-9hjh-fr4f-gxc4.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:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:N"}]}
