Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient verification of data authenticity in discovery TXT record handling when processing unauthenticated Bonjour/mDNS and DNS-SD service advertisements on a shared or untrusted LAN. A remote attacker can advertise a rogue _openclaw-gw._tcp service with crafted TXT records to disclose sensitive information.
This can steer clients to an attacker-controlled endpoint and may cause acceptance of an attacker certificate, potentially exposing Gateway credentials during connection.
