Summary
OpenClaw Gateway `operator.write` can reach admin-only session reset via `chat.send` `/reset`
Details

Summary

The chat.send path reused command authorization to trigger /reset session rotation even though direct session reset is an admin-only control-plane operation.

Impact

A write-scoped gateway caller could rotate a target session, archive the prior transcript state, and force a new session id without admin scope.

Affected Component

src/gateway/server-methods/chat.ts, src/auto-reply/reply/session.ts

Fixed Versions

  • Affected: <= 2026.3.24
  • Patched: >= 2026.3.28
  • Latest stable 2026.3.28 contains the fix.

Fix

Fixed by commit be00fcfccb (Gateway: align chat.send reset scope checks).
