{"id":"CVE-2026-32029","aliases":["GHSA-2rgf-hm63-5qph"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-32029","summary":"OpenClaw < 2026.2.21 - Client IP Spoofing via X-Forwarded-For Header Parsing","details":"### Summary\n\nOpenClaw used left-most `X-Forwarded-For` values when requests came from configured trusted proxies. In proxy chains that append/preserve header values, this could let attacker-controlled header content influence security decisions tied to client IP.\n\n### Affected Packages / Versions\n\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm)\n- Affected: `<= 2026.2.19-2`\n- Patched: `2026.2.21` (planned next release)\n\n### Impact\n\nPossible client-IP spoofing in security-sensitive paths (for example auth rate-limit identity and local/private classification) for deployments behind trusted proxies with non-recommended forwarding behavior.\n\n### Scope Note\n\nOpenClaw docs recommend reverse proxies overwrite (not append/preserve) inbound forwarding headers. This condition reduces severity.\n\n### Fix Commit(s)\n\n- `07039dc089e51589a213ec0d16f8d6f2cd871fa1`\n- `8877bfd11ec7760b115b2d0d7500a45da2749747`\n\n### Release Process Note\n\n`patched_versions` is pre-set to the planned next release (`2026.2.21`). After npm release is out, publish this advisory.\n\nOpenClaw thanks @AnthonyDiSanti for reporting.","published":"2026-03-19T22:07:05.115Z","modified":"2026-10-28T02:30:51.826020229Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"openclaw","fixedVersion":"2026.2.21"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/07039dc089e51589a213ec0d16f8d6f2cd871fa1","label":"openclaw/openclaw@07039dc"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/32xxx/CVE-2026-32029.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/security/advisories/GHSA-2rgf-hm63-5qph"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-32029"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/openclaw-client-ip-spoofing-via-x-forwarded-for-header-parsing"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/07039dc089e51589a213ec0d16f8d6f2cd871fa1"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/commit/8877bfd11ec7760b115b2d0d7500a45da2749747"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-10-28T02:30:51.826020229Z"}}
