Summary

Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw's Webhooks SecretRef route secret remains valid after rotation/reload

Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-q8ff-7ffm-m3r9. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

OpenClaw before 2026.4.23 caches resolved webhook route secrets backed by SecretRef values, allowing stale secrets to remain valid after rotation and reload. Attackers with previously valid webhook route secrets can continue authenticating requests and invoking configured webhook task flows until gateway or plugin restart.
