CVE-2026-32897
6.3
CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Summary
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.
