Privilege Escalation Authentication Bypass

Description

OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the /pair approve command path that fails to forward caller scopes into the core approval check. A caller with pairing privileges but without admin privileges can approve pending device requests asking for broader scopes including admin access by exploiting the missing scope validation in extensions/device-pair/index.ts and src/infra/device-pairing.ts.

Analysis

Privilege escalation in OpenClaw (pre-2026.3.28) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to gain administrative access by exploiting missing scope validation in the device pairing approval workflow. The /pair approve command fails to forward caller scopes during approval checks, enabling attackers with basic pairing privileges-or potentially no privileges given the CVSS PR:N vector-to approve device requests with elevated admin scopes. …
