How severe is CVE-2026-32050?

CVE-2026-32050 has a CVSS score of 3.7/10, rated LOW. Review your exposure and patch according to your risk tolerance.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2026-32050?

CVE-2026-32050 affects the following packages: openclaw (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix CVE-2026-32050?

Update openclaw to 2026.2.25 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-32050 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2026-32050 in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for openclaw. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.

How do I mitigate CVE-2026-32050 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

How does O3 Security protect against CVE-2026-32050?

O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-32050 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is CVE-2026-32050 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-32050 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-2026-32050?

CVE-2026-32050 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.2%, placing it in the 11th 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-2026-32050?

CVE-2026-32050 is classified as CWE-863 (CWE-863). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was CVE-2026-32050 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2026-32050 was published on March 21, 2026 and was last updated on April 2, 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

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 contain an access control vulnerability in signal reaction notification handling that allows unauthorized senders to enqueue status events before authorization checks are applied. Attackers can exploit the reaction-only event path in event-handler.ts to queue signal reaction status lines for sessions without proper DM or group access validation.
