Summary
Synology Chat Webhook Pre-Auth Rate-Limit Bypass Enables Brute-Force Guessing of Weak Webhook Token
Affected Packages / Versions
- Package:
openclaw - Affected versions:
<= 2026.3.24 - First patched version:
2026.3.25 - Latest published npm version at verification time:
2026.3.24
Details
Synology Chat webhook auth previously rejected invalid tokens without throttling repeated guesses, allowing brute-force attempts against weak webhook secrets. Commit 0b4d07337467f4d40a0cc1ced83d45ceaec0863c adds repeated-guess throttling before auth failure responses.
Verified vulnerable on tag v2026.3.24 and fixed on main by commit 0b4d07337467f4d40a0cc1ced83d45ceaec0863c.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
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.
Fix
Update openclaw to 2026.3.28 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-mf5g-6r6f-ghhm 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 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-mf5g-6r6f-ghhm can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-mf5g-6r6f-ghhm. 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-mf5g-6r6f-ghhm in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds GHSA-mf5g-6r6f-ghhm across npm dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
