OpenClaw < 2026.2.25 - Missing Authorization Check in Discord DM Reaction Ingress
Summary
OpenClaw < 2026.2.25 - Missing Authorization Check in Discord DM Reaction Ingress
Original description
The description as published by the source.
OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.25 fail to enforce dmPolicy and allowFrom authorization checks on Discord direct-message reaction notifications, allowing non-allowlisted users to enqueue reaction-derived system events. Attackers can exploit this inconsistency by reacting to bot-authored DM messages to bypass DM authorization restrictions and trigger downstream automation or tool policies.
