Summary
Duplicate Advisory: OpenClaw: Gateway Plugin Subagent Fallback `deleteSession` Uses Synthetic `operator.admin`
Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-h4jx-hjr3-fhgc. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

OpenClaw before 2026.3.25 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the gateway plugin subagent fallback deleteSession function that uses a synthetic operator.admin runtime scope. Attackers can exploit this by triggering session deletion without a request-scoped client to execute privileged operations with unintended administrative scope.
