SCA: security update for openclaw (GHSA-v6x2-2qvm-6gv8)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 438359

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 reuse gateway.auth.token as a fallback hash secret for owner-ID
prompt obfuscation when commands.ownerDisplay is set to hash and commands.ownerDisplaySecret is unset,
creating dual-use of authentication secrets across security domains. Attackers with access to system
prompts sent to third-party model providers can derive the gateway authentication token from the hash
outputs, compromising gateway authentication security. (CVE-2026-32897)

Solution

Update the openclaw library and its related packages to version 2026.2.22 or later.
