GHSA-wcxr-59v9-rxr8
HIGHGHSA-wcxr-59v9-rxr8 is a high-severity (CVSS 8.4) CWE-863 vulnerability in openclaw. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-wcxr-59v9-rxr8 is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
`OpenClaw: session_status` let sandboxed subagents access parent or sibling session state

openclawnpmDescription
Summary
The built-in session_status tool did not enforce the intended session-visibility boundary. A sandboxed subagent could supply another session's sessionKey and inspect or modify state outside its own sandbox scope.
Impact
This allowed a sandboxed child session to read parent or sibling session data and, in affected releases, update the target session's persisted model override.
Affected versions
openclaw <= 2026.3.8
Patch
Fixed in openclaw 2026.3.11 and included in later releases such as 2026.3.12. Session visibility checks now enforce the sandbox boundary before reading or mutating session state.

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 2026.3.11 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-wcxr-59v9-rxr8 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-wcxr-59v9-rxr8 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-wcxr-59v9-rxr8. 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-wcxr-59v9-rxr8 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-wcxr-59v9-rxr8 across npm dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
