DescriptionNVD
OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 contains an incomplete scope-clearing vulnerability in trusted-proxy authentication mode that allows operator.admin privilege escalation. Attackers can exploit this by declaring operator scopes on non-Control-UI clients, allowing self-declared scopes to persist on identity-bearing authentication paths and escalate privileges.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in OpenClaw's trusted-proxy authentication mode allows low-privileged authenticated users to gain operator.admin privileges by declaring operator scopes on non-Control-UI clients. The incomplete scope-clearing mechanism fails to sanitize self-declared scopes when identity-bearing authentication paths process requests, enabling attackers to bypass authorization checks and achieve full administrative access. …
