Summary
Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw Has a Gateway Control Interface Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-hr8g-2q7x-3f4w. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the Control Interface bootstrap JSON that exposes version and assistant agent identifiers. Attackers can extract sensitive fingerprinting information from the Control UI bootstrap payload to identify system versions and agent configurations.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Implementation

Production applications should never use methods that generate internal details such as stack traces and error messages unless that information is directly committed to a log that is not viewable by the end user. All error message text should be HTML entity encoded before being written to the log file to protect against potential cross-site scripting attacks against the viewer of the logs

CAPEC-170: Web Application Fingerprinting

An attacker sends a series of probes to a web application in order to elicit version-dependent and type-dependent behavior that assists in identifying the target. An attacker could learn information such as software versions, error pages, and response headers, variations in implementations of the HTTP protocol, directory structures, and other similar information about the targeted service. This information can then be used by an attacker to formulate a targeted attack plan. While web application fingerprinting is not intended to be damaging (although certain activities, such as network scans, can sometimes cause disruptions to vulnerable applications inadvertently) it may often pave the way for more damaging attacks.

CAPEC-694: System Location Discovery

An adversary collects information about the target system in an attempt to identify the system's geographical location.

Information gathered could include keyboard layout, system language, and timezone. This information may benefit an adversary in confirming the desired target and/or tailoring further attacks.
