Summary
OpenClaw: config.get redaction bypass through sourceConfig and runtimeConfig aliases
Details

Summary

config.get redaction bypass through sourceConfig and runtimeConfig aliases.

Affected Packages / Versions

  • Package: openclaw
  • Ecosystem: npm
  • Affected versions: < 2026.4.14

Impact

An authenticated gateway client with config read access could receive unredacted secrets through alias fields that survived redaction, including provider API keys, gateway auth material, and channel credentials.

The fix explicitly overwrites sourceConfig and runtimeConfig with the same redacted copies used for resolved and config, including the invalid-snapshot branch. Tests now cover both alias fields.
