NVD description
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 fail to consistently apply sender-policy checks to reaction_* and pin_* non-message events before adding them to system-event context. Attackers can bypass configured DM policies and channel user allowlists to inject unauthorized reaction and pin events from restricted senders.
What to do
- Upgrade OpenClaw to
2026.2.25or later. - Do not expose the component's API or UI to the internet without authentication in front of it.
