OpenClaw: MS Teams fileConsent/invoke missing conversation binding allowed cross-conversation pending-upload consumption

Summary In openclaw MS Teams file-consent flow, pending uploads were authorized by uploadId alone. fileConsent/invoke did not verify the invoke conversation against the conversation that created the pending upload. Impact An attacker who obtained a valid uploadId within TTL could trigger...

GHSA-2HM8-RQRM-XFJQ OpenClaw's owner-only gateway tool access checks were incomplete in specific authenticated DM flows

Summary In authenticated non-owner DM sessions, a narrow tool-invocation path could reach broader-than-intended owner-only gateway actions. Impact This requires an authenticated non-owner sender in a DM session and a specific tool invocation path. No unauthenticated access is involved, and this...
