Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-276 - Incorrect Default Permissions
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect default permissions in the config recovery feature when restoring configuration after repair. A local user can access a restored openclaw.json file with broader read permissions to disclose sensitive information.
Only configurations with the affected feature enabled and reachable are exposed.
2) Improper access control (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote user to invoke slash command behavior after token revocation.
The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in the Mattermost slash token validation logic when processing requests during the monitor refresh window. A remote user can continue using an old Mattermost slash token to invoke slash command behavior after token revocation.
Only instances with the affected feature enabled and reachable are vulnerable.
3) Missing Authorization (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-862 - Missing Authorization
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:H/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass owner-only tool policy and invoke owner-only behavior.
The vulnerability exists due to missing authorization in the MCP loopback path when the affected feature is enabled and reachable. A local user can reach the affected loopback path as a non-owner caller to bypass owner-only tool policy and invoke owner-only behavior.
Practical impact depends on the operator's configuration and whether lower-trust input can reach that path.
