AI-suggested
Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the OpenHarness gateway to trusted users only and monitor for unauthorized access attempts. Consider disabling or restricting the /resume and /summary commands if possible to limit exposure.
Description
OpenHarness ohmo gateway /resume and /summary slash commands default remote_invocable to True, allowing admitted remote senders to enumerate and load arbitrary session snapshots by ID. Attackers can exploit this to access victim snapshots containing private prompts, credentials, tool output, and file paths via shared gateway channels.
