Summary
Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw: Nostr inbound DMs could trigger unauthenticated crypto work before sender policy enforcement
Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-65h8-27jh-q8wv. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

OpenClaw before 2026.3.22 performs cryptographic and dispatch operations on inbound Nostr direct messages before enforcing sender and pairing policy validation. Attackers can trigger unauthorized pre-authentication computation by sending crafted DM messages, enabling denial of service through resource exhaustion.
