GHSA-F5MF-3R52-R83W
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-13 20:54 – Updated: 2026-03-13 20:54Summary
OpenClaw's Zalouser allowlist mode accepted mutable group names and normalized slugs as authorization matches instead of requiring stable group IDs. In deployments that used name-based channels.zalouser.groups entries together with permissive sender allowlists, a different group could be accepted by reusing the same display name as an allowlisted group.
Impact
This weakened channel authorization for Zalouser group routing and could allow messages from an unintended group to reach the agent when operators relied on group names instead of stable IDs.
Affected versions
openclaw <= 2026.3.11
Patch
Fixed in openclaw 2026.3.12. Allowlist authorization now matches stable group identifiers, and users should update to 2026.3.12 or later.

}
Mitigation
- Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
- Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].
Mitigation MIT-4.4
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
- For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
- For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
- One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.
No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
