      <title>CVE-2026-32025 — OpenClaw &lt; 2026.2.25 - Password Brute-Force via Browser-Origin WebSocket Authentication Bypass</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-32025</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; OpenClaw&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 contain an authentication hardening gap in browser-origin WebSocket clients that allows attackers to bypass origin checks and auth throttling on loopback deployments. An attacker can trick a user into opening a malicious webpage and perform password brute-force attacks against the gateway to establish an authenticated operator session and invoke control-plane methods.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>GHSA-jmmg-jqc7-5qf4 — OpenClaw's browser-origin WebSocket auth hardening gap could enable loopback password brute-force chains</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/ghsa-jmmg-jqc7-5qf4</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; npm: openclaw&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This issue is a browser-origin WebSocket auth chain on local loopback deployments using password auth. It is serious, but conditional: an attacker must get the user to open a malicious page and then successfully guess the gateway password.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Context and Preconditions&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;OpenClaw’s web/gateway surface is designed for local use and trusted-operator workflows. In affected versions, a browser-origin client could combine three behaviors:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- Origin checks not enforced for some non-Control-UI WebSocket client IDs.
- Loopback auth attempts exempt from password-failure throttling.
- Silent local pairing path available to browser-origin non-Control-UI clients.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Successful exploitation requires all of the following:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- Gateway reachable on loopback (default).
- Password auth mode in use.
- Victim opens attacker-controlled web content.
- Password is guessable within feasible brute-force/dictionary attempts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Practical Impact&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the password is guessed, an attacker can establish an authenticated operator WebSocket session and invoke control-plane methods available to that role. This is not an unauthenticated internet-exposed RCE class issue by itself; it is a local browser-origin auth-hardening gap with meaningful impact under the conditions above.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Affected Packages / Versions&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- Package: `openclaw` (npm)
- Affected versions: `&amp;lt;=2026.2.24` (latest published npm version as of February 26, 2026)
- Patched versions : `&amp;gt;=2026.2.25`&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Fix Commit(s)&lt;/p&gt;
