GHSA-WCWW-4VRG-9H35
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:49 – Updated: 2022-05-13 01:49Apps Manager included in Pivotal Application Service, versions 1.12.x prior to 1.12.22, 2.0.x prior to 2.0.13, and 2.1.x prior to 2.1.4 contains an authorization enforcement vulnerability. A member of any org is able to create invitations to any org for which the org GUID can be discovered. Accepting this invitation gives unauthorized access to view the member list, domains, quotas and other information about the org.

GHSA-WCXR-59V9-RXR8
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-13 20:55 – Updated: 2026-04-01 00:06Summary
The built-in session_status tool did not enforce the intended session-visibility boundary. A sandboxed subagent could supply another session's sessionKey and inspect or modify state outside its own sandbox scope.
Impact
This allowed a sandboxed child session to read parent or sibling session data and, in affected releases, update the target session's persisted model override.
Affected versions
openclaw <= 2026.3.8
Patch
Fixed in openclaw 2026.3.11 and included in later releases such as 2026.3.12. Session visibility checks now enforce the sandbox boundary before reading or mutating session state.

}
Mitigation
- Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
- Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].
Mitigation MIT-4.4
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
- For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
- For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
- One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.
No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
