OpenClaw before 2026.4.15 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in Matrix room control-command authorization that trusts DM pairing-store entries. Attackers with DM-paired sender IDs can execute room control commands without being in configured allowlists by posting in bot rooms, potentially enabling privileged OpenClaw behavior.
