{"id":"GHSA-xr4f-mjxj-w6w5","summary":"OpenClaw: Non-owner chat senders could issue device-pairing bootstrap codes","details":"### Summary\n\nThe bundled device-pair plugin exposed `/pair` on normal chat command surfaces. In affected releases, authorized non-owner chat senders could issue device-pairing bootstrap codes without having owner, admin, or pairing scope.\n\nThis issue does not affect unauthenticated users. The caller must already be allowed to send commands to the agent through a configured chat channel.\n\n### Affected configurations\n\nThis affects deployments where the bundled device-pair plugin is enabled and a non-owner sender is authorized to use normal chat commands, such as in a configured Telegram, Discord, or Slack agent.\n\n### Impact\n\nA non-owner authorized sender could create a setup code and use it before expiry to enroll a device with operator/node capabilities. That device would then retain persistent credentials until removed.\n\n### Patched Versions\n\nThe first stable patched version is `2026.5.4`.\n\n### Mitigations\n\nUpgrade to `openclaw@2026.5.4` or later. Review paired devices and remove any unexpected entries. In shared chat channels, keep command access limited to users who should be allowed to manage device pairing.","aliases":["CVE-2026-32905"],"modified":"2026-07-08T07:35:36.539410473Z","published":"2026-07-02T16:55:09Z","database_specific":{"github_reviewed_at":"2026-07-02T16:55:09Z","nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-863"],"severity":"HIGH","github_reviewed":true},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-xr4f-mjxj-w6w5"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"openclaw","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/openclaw"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2026.5.4"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/07/GHSA-xr4f-mjxj-w6w5/GHSA-xr4f-mjxj-w6w5.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:H/I:H/A:L"}]}
