Summary

OpenClaw: Endpoint persists after trust decline, leaking gateway credentials

Details

Summary

Remote onboarding preserves attacker-discovered endpoint after trust decline, routing gateway credentials to it

Current Maintainer Triage

Status: narrow
Normalized severity: medium
Assessment: Real shipped onboarding trust-decline bug because the declined discovered URL survived into the manual prompt, but operator acceptance of that prefill is still required, so medium.

Affected Packages / Versions

Package: openclaw (npm)
Latest published npm version: 2026.3.31
Vulnerable version range: <=2026.3.28
Patched versions: >= 2026.3.31
First stable tag containing the fix: v2026.3.31

Release Process Note

The fix is already present in released version 2026.3.31.
This draft looks ready for final maintainer disposition or publication, not additional code-fix work.

Thanks @zsxsoft for reporting.
