CVE-2026-62191

OpenClaw versions 2026.6.6 before 2026.6.9 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in message mutation handling that allows lower-trust callers to perform actions requiring stronger authorization checks. Attackers can exploit misconfigured input paths to skip requester authorization and execute privileged operations when the affected feature is enabled and reachable.

Summary		(es) OpenClaw versiones 2026.6.6 anteriores a 2026.6.9 contienen una vulnerabilidad de omisión de autorización en el manejo de mutación de mensajes que permite a los llamadores de menor confianza realizar acciones que requieren comprobaciones de autorización más estrictas. Los atacantes pueden explotar rutas de entrada mal configuradas para omitir la autorización del solicitante y ejecutar operaciones privilegiadas cuando la característica afectada está habilitada y es accesible.
