Description
OpenClaw versions before 2026.7.1 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the diagnostics export command that allows non-owner channel senders to access owner-only host diagnostic bundles. Attackers can request and receive diagnostic details about the host, configuration, runtime, and connected services intended only for owners.
