CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Summary
The BlueBubbles webhook handler in OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.21 contains a passwordless fallback authentication path that allows unauthenticated webhook events in certain reverse-proxy or local routing configurations. Attackers can bypass webhook authentication by exploiting the loopback/proxy heuristics to send unauthenticated webhook events to the BlueBubbles plugin.
