Summary
Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw reuses the gateway auth token in the owner ID prompt hashing fallback
Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-v6x2-2qvm-6gv8. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 reuse gateway.auth.token as a fallback hash secret for owner-ID prompt obfuscation when commands.ownerDisplay is set to hash and commands.ownerDisplaySecret is unset, creating dual-use of authentication secrets across security domains. Attackers with access to system prompts sent to third-party model providers can derive the gateway authentication token from the hash outputs, compromising gateway authentication security.
