Summary
OpenClaw before 2026.5.4 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the bundled device-pair plugin that allows non-owner authorized chat senders to issue device-pairing bootstrap codes without proper scope validation. Attackers with chat command access can create setup codes to enroll devices with operator/node capabilities, granting persistent credentials until manual removal.
