OpenClaw before 2026.4.14 contains a redaction bypass vulnerability that allows authenticated gateway clients to receive unredacted secrets through sourceConfig and runtimeConfig alias fields. Attackers with config read access can exploit this to obtain provider API keys, gateway authentication material, and channel credentials that should have been redacted.
