Lifecycle Timeline
4Description
OpenClaw before 2026.3.22 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the device.pair.approve method that allows an operator.pairing approver to approve pending device requests with broader operator scopes than the approver actually holds. Attackers can exploit insufficient scope validation to escalate privileges to operator.admin and achieve remote code execution on the Node infrastructure.
Analysis
Privilege escalation in OpenClaw before 2026.3.22 enables authenticated attackers with operator.pairing approver role to escalate privileges to operator.admin through insufficient scope validation in the device.pair.approve method. Exploitation allows approval of device requests with broader operator scopes than the approver legitimately holds, ultimately enabling remote code execution on Node infrastructure. …
