Lifecycle Timeline
4Description
OpenClaw before 2026.3.22 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the X-Forwarded-For header processing when trustedProxies is configured, allowing attackers to spoof loopback hops. Remote attackers can inject forged forwarding headers to bypass canvas authentication and rate-limiting protections by masquerading as loopback clients.
Analysis
OpenClaw before version 2026.3.22 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in X-Forwarded-For header processing when trustedProxies is configured, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to spoof loopback client addresses and bypass canvas authentication and rate-limiting protections. The vulnerability exploits improper validation of forwarding headers to masquerade as local loopback connections, with a CVSS score of 6.5 reflecting moderate confidentiality and integrity impact but no direct availability impact.
