Summary
skills.status could disclose secrets to operator.read clients by returning raw resolved config values in configChecks for skill requires.config paths.
Affected Packages / Versions
- Package:
openclaw(npm) - Affected:
<= 2026.2.13 - Patched:
2026.2.14
Details
The gateway method skills.status returned a requirements report that included configChecks[].value (the resolved value for each requires.config entry). If a skill required a broad config subtree (for example channels.discord), the report could include secrets such as Discord bot tokens.
skills.status is callable with operator.read, so read-scoped clients could obtain secrets without operator.admin / config.* access.
Fix
- Stop including raw resolved config values in requirement checks (return only
{ path, satisfied }). - Narrow the Discord skill requirement to the token key.

Mitigation
Rotate any Discord tokens that may have been exposed to read-scoped clients.
Thanks @simecek for reporting.
