AI-suggested

A fix is available in OpenClaw version 2026.9.4. Users should upgrade to this version or later to remediate the incorrect authorization vulnerability. No other mitigation guidance is provided or required.

Description

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.9.4 have an authorization vulnerability in the mcp.app.view method. This flaw allows users with operator.read tokens to perform actions that require operator.write scope by obtaining and redeeming a standalone ticket. This enables unauthorized invocation of state-changing tools without proper authorization checks.
