No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2026-29606 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2026-29606?

CVE-2026-29606 affects the following packages: openclaw (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix CVE-2026-29606?

Update openclaw to 2026.2.14 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-29606 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2026-29606 in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for openclaw, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2026-29606 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.

Is CVE-2026-29606 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-29606 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2026-29606?

CVE-2026-29606 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.3%, placing it in the 27th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2026-29606?

CVE-2026-29606 is classified as Missing Authentication (CWE-306). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was CVE-2026-29606 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2026-29606 was published on March 5, 2026 and was last updated on October 28, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Summary

A Twilio webhook signature-verification bypass in the voice-call extension could allow unauthenticated webhook requests when a specific ngrok free-tier compatibility option is enabled.

Impact

This issue is limited to configurations that explicitly enable and expose the voice-call webhook endpoint.

Not affected by default:

The voice-call extension is optional and disabled by default.
The bypass only applied when tunnel.allowNgrokFreeTierLoopbackBypass was explicitly enabled.
Exploitation required the webhook to be reachable (typically via a public ngrok URL during development).

Worst case (when exposed and the option was enabled):

An external attacker could send forged requests to the publicly reachable webhook endpoint that would be accepted without a valid X-Twilio-Signature.
This could result in unauthorized webhook event handling (integrity) and request flooding (availability).

Affected Packages / Versions

Package: openclaw (npm)
Affected versions: <= 2026.2.13 (latest published as of 2026-02-14)
Patched versions: >= 2026.2.14 (planned next release; pending publish)

Fix

allowNgrokFreeTierLoopbackBypass no longer bypasses signature verification. It only enables trusting forwarded headers on loopback so the public ngrok URL can be reconstructed for correct signature validation.
