Affected packages
• npm openclaw: < 2026.2.15 → fixed in 2026.2.15
Description
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 to `tree`.
• 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.
