config.get redaction bypass through sourceConfig and runtimeConfig aliases.
openclaw< 2026.4.14>= 2026.4.14An 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.
The issue was fixed in #66030. The first stable tag containing the fix is v2026.4.14, and openclaw@2026.4.14 includes the fix.
86734ef93a2f25063371b04f1946eb300548acd4Users should upgrade to openclaw 2026.4.14 or newer. The latest npm release, 2026.4.14, already includes the fix.
