Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-mpc8-jxjh-qpgh. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

OpenClaw before 2026.4.25 contains a control scope enforcement bypass vulnerability in the focus command that allows authenticated callers to execute the command without proper authorization checks. Attackers can trigger the focus command to change focus state outside intended caller authority, potentially enabling unauthorized operations depending on gateway configuration and input trust levels.
