High CVSS 8.8
CVE-2026-62218
OpenClaw 2026.1.20 before 2026.5.27 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the device.pair.approve feature that allows lower-trust callers to bypass role-management checks. Attackers can perform actions requiring stronger authorization by reaching the affected feature through configured input paths.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with an ordinary user account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- No authorisation check happens before the action.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
