Affected packages
• npm openclaw: < 2026.2.25 → fixed in 2026.2.25
Description
Summary
When Nextcloud Talk webhook signing was valid, replayed requests could be accepted without durable replay suppression, allowing duplicate inbound processing after replay-window expiry or process restart.
Details
OpenClaw's Nextcloud Talk webhook path verified `HMAC(secret, random + body)` but previously lacked durable replay state tied to webhook events. This allowed replay of a previously valid signed request in some operational conditions.
The fix on `main` adds:
• persistent per-account replay dedupe for Nextcloud Talk webhook events,
• replay checks before webhook side effects (`onMessage`),
• backend-origin validation against configured account base URL (when configured).
Impact
A captured valid signed webhook request could be replayed to trigger duplicate inbound handling. This is an integrity/availability issue (duplicate actions/noise), scoped to deployments using Nextcloud Talk webhook integration.
Affected Packages / Versions
• Package: `openclaw` (npm)

Release Process Note
`patched_versions` is pre-set to the release (`2026.2.25`) so once npm release `2026.2.25` is published, advisory is now published.
