GHSA-xrq9-jm7v-g9h7: OpenClaw: Paired-device pairing actions were not limited to the caller device
Affected Packages / Versions - Package: openclaw (npm) - Affected versions: < 2026.4.20 - Patched version: 2026.4.20 Impact A paired device session with limited pairing scope could enumerate global pairing state and act on pairing requests that belonged to another device within the same gateway scope ceiling. This is a same-gateway paired-device authorization bug, not a remote unauthenticated issue. Severity is low.

Affected Packages / Versions
- Package:
openclaw(npm) - Affected versions:
< 2026.4.20 - Patched version:
2026.4.20
Impact
A paired device session with limited pairing scope could enumerate global pairing state and act on pairing requests that belonged to another device within the same gateway scope ceiling.
This is a same-gateway paired-device authorization bug, not a remote unauthenticated issue. Severity is low.
Fix
Pairing management actions are now limited to the caller device, so non-admin paired-device sessions cannot approve or operate on unrelated pending device requests.
Fix commit:
5a12f30441d5b0b151f550daa2c5c9e8db61e2e6
Release
Fixed in OpenClaw 2026.4.20.
