CVE-2026-28454 PUBLISHED

OpenClaw < 2026.2.2 - Authorization Bypass via Unauthenticated Telegram Webhook

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 27.02.2026 Published: 05.03.2026 Updated: 09.03.2026

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.2 fail to validate webhook secrets in Telegram webhook mode (must be enabled), allowing unauthenticated HTTP POST requests to the webhook endpoint that trust attacker-controlled JSON payloads. Remote attackers can forge Telegram updates by spoofing message.from.id and chat.id fields to bypass sender allowlists and execute privileged bot commands.
