DescriptionCVE.org

OpenClaw before 2026.6.5 could forward Authorization headers during MCP SSE redirects. When the affected feature is enabled and reachable, a lower-trust caller or configured input path could execute or persist actions beyond the caller's intended authorization. Impact depends on the operator's configuration and whether lower-trust input can reach the affected path.

AnalysisAI

Authorization header leakage in OpenClaw before 2026.6.5 exposes credentials to unintended servers during MCP SSE redirect handling, allowing an authenticated lower-trust caller to gain access to resources beyond their intended authorization scope. The vulnerability affects deployments where the MCP SSE redirect feature is enabled and reachable by lower-trust input paths, with practical impact varying by operator configuration. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate to OpenClaw Gateway with low-trust credentials
Delivery
Trigger MCP SSE redirect toward attacker-observable endpoint
Exploit
Gateway forwards Authorization header to redirect target
Execution
Capture leaked credential at attacker-controlled destination
Impact
Replay credential against protected backend services

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The MCP SSE redirect feature must be explicitly enabled and reachable within the OpenClaw Gateway deployment - the advisory explicitly scopes the vulnerability to this named feature and configuration. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 6.0 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N) reflects moderate, conditional risk: network-accessible and low attacker complexity once prerequisites are satisfied, but requiring authenticated access (PR:L) and specific attack conditions (AT:P - the MCP SSE redirect feature must be enabled and reachable by lower-trust input). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated lower-trust user with access to an OpenClaw Gateway that has the MCP SSE redirect feature enabled crafts a request that triggers a redirect to an attacker-controlled or attacker-observable endpoint; the Gateway forwards the caller's Authorization header to that endpoint, exposing the credential. The harvested Authorization token is replayed by the attacker against other services or APIs that accept the same credential, granting access beyond the original caller's authorized scope. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: 2026.6.5 - upgrade OpenClaw to this version or later as the primary remediation, per the vendor advisory at https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-9c3v-684m-579c. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
