OpenClaw: Untrusted web origins can obtain authenticated operator.admin access in trusted-proxy mode

Published Mar 12, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.1 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant. Prior to 2026.3.11, browser-originated WebSocket connections could bypass origin validation when gateway.auth.mode was set to trusted-proxy and the request arrived with proxy headers. A page served from an untrusted origin could connect through a trusted reverse proxy, inherit proxy-authenticated identity, and establish a privileged operator session. This vulnerability is fixed in 2026.3.11.
