{"id":"CVE-2026-32027","aliases":["GHSA-jv6r-27ww-4gw4"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-32027","summary":"OpenClaw < 2026.2.26 - Improper Authorization via DM Pairing Store Identity Inheritance in Group Allowlist","details":"## Summary\nDM pairing-store identities were incorrectly eligible for group allowlist authorization checks, enabling cross-context authorization in group message paths.\n\n## Details\nIn affected versions, group allowlist evaluation could inherit identities from the DM pairing store. A sender approved via DM pairing could satisfy group sender allowlist checks without being explicitly present in `groupAllowFrom`.\n\nThis is an authorization-policy boundary issue between DM pairing and group allowlists.\n\n## Affected Packages / Versions\n- `openclaw` (npm): affected `<= 2026.2.25` (latest published npm version at triage time)\n- `openclaw` (npm): patched `>= 2026.2.26` (planned next release)\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n- `openclaw/openclaw@8bdda7a651c21e98faccdbbd73081e79cffe8be0`\n- `openclaw/openclaw@051fdcc428129446e7c084260f837b7284279ce9`\n\n## Release Process Note\n`patched_versions` is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.26`) so once npm release is published, maintainers can publish the advisory without additional metadata edits.\n\n## Maintainer Timeline Note\nMaintainers landed the initial fix before this report was filed; this report still provided useful independent confirmation of the issue class and exploit path.\n\nOpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.","published":"2026-03-19T22:07:02.930Z","modified":"2026-08-17T03:48:14.326868424Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"openclaw","fixedVersion":"2026.2.26"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/051fdcc428129446e7c084260f837b7284279ce9","label":"openclaw/openclaw@051fdcc"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/32xxx/CVE-2026-32027.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-jv6r-27ww-4gw4"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-32027"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/openclaw-improper-authorization-via-dm-pairing-store-identity-inheritance-in-group-allowlist"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/051fdcc428129446e7c084260f837b7284279ce9"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/8bdda7a651c21e98faccdbbd73081e79cffe8be0"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-17T03:48:14.326868424Z"}}
