Severity

7.1 (High) CVSS_V4 - CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N CVSS Calculator

Summary

OpenClaw: Gateway `operator.write` can reach admin-only persisted `verboseLevel` via `chat.send` `/verbose`

Details

Summary

The chat.send path let authorized write-scoped callers persist /verbose session overrides even though the same stored session mutation is admin-only through sessions.patch.

Impact

A write-scoped gateway caller could persist verbose output for later runs and expose more reasoning or tool output than the operator intended.

Affected Component

src/auto-reply/reply/directive-handling.impl.ts, src/gateway/sessions-patch.ts

Fixed Versions

Affected: <= 2026.3.24
Patched: >= 2026.3.28

Fix

Fixed by commit c603123528 (fix(gateway): require admin for persisted verbose defaults).
