GHSA-67mf-f936-ppxf
## Impact OpenClaw `node.pair.approve` placed in `operator.write` scope instead of `operator.pairing` allows unprivileged pairing approval. The pairing approval method accepted operator.write instead of the narrower pairing scope and admin requirement for exec-capable nodes. OpenClaw is a user-controlled local assistant. This advisory is scoped to the OpenClaw trust model and does not assume a multi-tenant service boundary. ## Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Affected versions: `<= v2026.04.01` - Patched versions: `2026.4.8` ## Fix The issue was fixed on `main` and is available in the patched npm version listed above. The verified fixed tree is commit `d7c3210cd6f5fdfdc1beff4c9541673e814354d5`. ## Verification The fix was re-checked against `main` before publication, including targeted regression tests for the affected security boundary. ## Credits Thanks @nicky-cc of Tencent zhuque Lab ([https://github.com/Tencent/AI-Infra-Guard](https://github.com/Tencent/AI-Infra-Guard)) for reporting.
