{"id":"GHSA-v8qf-fr4g-28p2","summary":"OpenClaw: Assistant media route missed scope enforcement for trusted-proxy authorization","details":"## Affected Packages / Versions\n\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm)\n- Affected versions: `\u003c 2026.4.20`\n- Patched version: `2026.4.20`\n\n## Impact\n\nThe Control UI assistant-media route authenticated trusted-proxy callers but did not enforce the declared operator scopes for identity-bearing HTTP auth paths. A trusted-proxy caller without `operator.read` could access assistant-media files and metadata that were otherwise inside allowed media roots.\n\nThe route still required successful gateway authentication and media-root checks. Severity is low.\n\n## Fix\n\nAssistant-media file and metadata requests now require `operator.read` on identity-bearing HTTP auth paths.\n\nFix commit:\n\n- `99ef3a63c58440d53f8e45ad861b846032fcb036`\n\n## Release\n\nFixed in OpenClaw `2026.4.20`.","aliases":["CVE-2026-41908"],"modified":"2026-05-05T16:26:30.968716Z","published":"2026-04-25T23:45:49Z","database_specific":{"severity":"LOW","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-04-25T23:45:49Z","nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-863"]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-v8qf-fr4g-28p2"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-41908"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/99ef3a63c58440d53f8e45ad861b846032fcb036"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/openclaw-scope-enforcement-bypass-in-assistant-media-route"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"openclaw","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/openclaw"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2026.4.20"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/04/GHSA-v8qf-fr4g-28p2/GHSA-v8qf-fr4g-28p2.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]}
