1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires a valid low-privilege authenticated session against the GoClaw WebSocket RPC interface (PR:L per CVSS 4.0 vector - unauthenticated exploitation is not indicated). The attacker must have network access to the WebSocket endpoint served by the GoClaw gateway. The vulnerability is specific to the |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N) indicates network-exploitable with low complexity, no special attack requirements, but requiring low-privilege authentication - this is a meaningful constraint that limits the attack surface to users who can obtain any valid credential. Impact is rated Low across confidentiality, integrity, and availability (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L), consistent with partial method-level access bypass rather than full compromise. No EPSS data was supplied; however, the E:P (PoC Exists) supplemental metric confirms a public exploit is available, which materially increases exploitation likelihood for targeted attacks. The vulnerability is not in CISA KEV, so no confirmed active exploitation. The overall risk is moderate in context: an insider or credential-holding attacker with network access to the WebSocket endpoint can exceed their authorized scope. For a beta-stage, niche product, the real-world exposure is likely limited but non-trivial for deployments in production. No conflicting signals between CVSS and description. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who holds any low-privilege account on a GoClaw deployment connects to the exposed WebSocket RPC endpoint and sends a crafted RPC call targeting a method they are not authorized to invoke. Because |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 05, 2026
Incorrect authorization in nextlevelbuilder GoClaw's WebSocket RPC Handler allows authenticated low-privilege remote attackers to bypass access controls on restricted methods. Affects all versions up to and including 3.13.0-beta.2. No public exploit identified as actively exploited (not in CISA KEV), but a publicly available proof-of-concept exists, lowering the barrier for exploitation against any exposed GoClaw deployment.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patched version has been independently confirmed at time of analysis - the fix is tracked via GitHub issue #1188 (https://github.com/nextlevelbuilder/goclaw/issues/1188) and no tagged release has been identified as containing the fix. Monitor the repository for a patched release beyond 3.13.0-beta.2. As an interim compensating control, restrict network access to the WebSocket RPC endpoint using firewall rules or reverse-proxy ACLs, ensuring only trusted, explicitly authorized users can establish WebSocket sessions - trade-off is reduced accessibility for legitimate clients. Additionally, audit the MethodRouter.Handle logic in internal/gateway/router.go directly and apply manual authorization checks per method if operating this software in production. Avoid exposing the WebSocket RPC interface to untrusted networks until a patched version is available. Refer to VulDB advisory at https://vuldb.com/vuln/376305 for updates.

Technical ContextAI · show details
GoClaw (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:nextlevelbuilder:goclaw) is a gateway-layer application likely serving as an API or RPC gateway, given the affected component is a WebSocket RPC Handler. The vulnerable code resides in internal/gateway/router.go within the MethodRouter.Handle function, which is responsible for routing and enforcing authorization on incoming WebSocket RPC calls. CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization) indicates the system performs authentication but fails to correctly validate whether the authenticated principal is permitted to invoke specific methods - a logic flaw rather than a missing check entirely. This is consistent with the 'Authentication Bypass' tag, suggesting a low-privilege session can invoke methods intended for higher-privilege roles by exploiting flawed route-level authorization decisions.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A security vulnerability has been detected in nextlevelbuilder GoClaw up to 3.13.0-beta.2. Impacted is the function MethodRouter.Handle of the file internal/gateway/router.go of the component WebSocket RPC Handler. Such manipulation leads to incorrect authorization. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report.
