Authorization bypass in OpenClaw's ClickClack agent-mode dispatch (versions 2026.5.10-beta.1 through 2026.6.4) allows a lower-trust caller to invoke actions that should be blocked by the toolsAllow policy, because that policy check can be skipped during dispatch. With CVSS PR:L, an already low-privileged authenticated caller (or an attacker-controlled input path) can escalate the scope of actions when the agent-mode feature is enabled and reachable. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; the issue was reported by VulnCheck and fixed in 2026.6.5.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
OpenClaw versions 2026.5.10-beta.1 before 2026.6.5 contain an authorization bypass in the ClickClack agent-mode dispatch feature, which could ignore the toolsAllow policy check. When the affected feature is enabled and reachable, a lower-trust caller or configured input path could perform actions that should have required a stronger authorization or policy check.
Executive ViewAI
OpenClaw's ClickClack automation agent has a security flaw that allows low-privileged authenticated users to execute high-privilege actions they should not have access to (CVE-2026-62209). Organizations running affected versions 2026.5.10-beta.1 through 2026.6.4 must patch immediately to prevent unauthorized automation execution and potential business disruption.
Within 24 hours: Identify all systems running OpenClaw ClickClack versions 2026.5.10-beta.1 through 2026.6.4 with agent-mode enabled and document their current deployment scope and data access. Within 7 days: Apply vendor-released patch 2026.6.5 to all affected systems, prioritizing production environments managing critical business processes. Within 30 days: Review agent-mode dispatch logs for any unauthorized action execution during the vulnerable window and implement enhanced authorization policy enforcement.
Apply vendor patch.
