Summary
OpenClaw iMessage group allowlist authorization inherited DM pairing-store identities
Details

Summary

Under iMessage groupPolicy=allowlist, group authorization could be satisfied by sender identities coming from the DM pairing store, broadening DM trust into group contexts.

Details

Affected component: src/imessage/monitor/monitor-provider.ts.

Vulnerable logic derived effectiveGroupAllowFrom using both the static group allowlist and DM pairing-store identities (storeAllowFrom). This allowed a sender approved via DM pairing to satisfy group authorization in groups even if the sender/chat was not explicitly present in groupAllowFrom.

This weakens boundary separation between DM pairing and group allowlist authorization.
