Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in OpenClaw versions before 2026.5.6 and involves an authorization bypass in Telegram interactive callbacks. Authenticated users can exploit this flaw to bypass the commands.allowFrom validation, which normally restricts who can invoke certain commands. By doing so, attackers can mark themselves as authorized senders before the allowlist checks are applied, allowing them to trigger command behavior that should be restricted based on Telegram sender permissions.

Impact Analysis

The impact of this vulnerability is that an attacker with authenticated access can bypass sender restrictions in Telegram callbacks, potentially executing commands that they should not be authorized to run. This could lead to unauthorized actions within the system, compromising its integrity and security.
