OpenClaw session tool visibility hardening and Telegram webhook secret fallback
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.

openclawnpmDescription
Vulnerability
In some shared-agent deployments, OpenClaw session tools (sessions_list, sessions_history, sessions_send) allowed broader session targeting than some operators intended. This is primarily a configuration/visibility-scoping issue in multi-user environments where peers are not equally trusted.
In Telegram webhook mode, monitor startup also did not fall back to per-account webhookSecret when only the account-level secret was configured.
Typical Use Case Context
Most regular OpenClaw deployments run a single agent, or run in trusted environments. In those setups, practical risk from this issue is generally low.
Impact
- Shared-agent, multi-user, less-trusted environments: session-tool access could expose transcript content across peer sessions.
- Single-agent or trusted environments: practical impact is limited.
- Telegram webhook mode: account-level secret wiring could be missed unless an explicit monitor webhook secret override was provided.
Affected Packages / Versions
- Package: npm
openclaw - Affected versions:
<= 2026.2.14 - Patched version:
2026.2.15(planned next release)
Remediation
- Add and enforce
tools.sessions.visibility(self | tree | agent | all) across session tools, defaulting totree. - Keep sandbox clamping behavior so sandboxed runs can be restricted to spawned/session-tree visibility.
- Resolve Telegram webhook secret from account config fallback in monitor webhook startup.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
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.
Fix
Update openclaw to 2026.2.15 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-6hf3-mhgc-cm65 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
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 O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-6hf3-mhgc-cm65 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-6hf3-mhgc-cm65. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-6hf3-mhgc-cm65 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-6hf3-mhgc-cm65 across npm dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
