OpenClaw < 2026.3.25 - Privilege Escalation via Synthetic operator.admin in deleteSession
Original description
The description as published by the source.
OpenClaw before 2026.3.25 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the gateway plugin subagent fallback deleteSession function that uses a synthetic operator.admin runtime scope. Attackers can exploit this by triggering session deletion without a request-scoped client to execute privileged operations with unintended administrative scope.
