CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.7.1 are vulnerable due to improper authorization, allowing non-owner users to execute MCP configuration changes via the /mcp set and /mcp unset commands. This flaw enables attackers to persist arbitrary MCP commands that run with elevated privileges, potentially compromising the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the host system. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access and system compromise.

Original NVD Description

OpenClaw versions before 2026.7.1 fail to properly authorize non-owner users executing MCP configuration changes through /mcp set and /mcp unset commands. Attackers can persist arbitrary stdio MCP commands that execute with OpenClaw process privileges when configuration loads, compromising host confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
