Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a missing authentication issue in the Nexting pinclaw OpenClaw channel plugin version 0.3.0 or earlier. It allows unauthenticated attackers to send blind prompts to a user's OpenClaw agent session by exploiting an unprotected POST endpoint at /pinclaw/send on port 18790, which is bound to all network interfaces by default.

Detection Guidance

Check if port 18790 is open and accessible on your network. Use commands like 'netstat -tuln | grep 18790' or 'ss -tuln | grep 18790' to verify if the service is listening. Inspect HTTP traffic to the endpoint POST /pinclaw/send for unauthenticated requests.

Impact Analysis

Unauthenticated attackers could inject malicious instructions into your OpenClaw agent session without your knowledge. This could lead to unauthorized actions, data manipulation, or exposure depending on how the agent processes the injected prompts. The impact severity is high due to the potential for arbitrary command execution or data breaches.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access or data exposure, which may violate GDPR's integrity and confidentiality requirements or HIPAA's safeguards for protected health information. Compliance failures could result in legal penalties, data breach notifications, and reputational damage.

Mitigation Strategies

Block external access to port 18790 using firewall rules. Update the Nexting pinclaw plugin to the latest version if a patch is available. Monitor logs for suspicious POST /pinclaw/send requests without authToken.
