medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 438388

Description

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

 - OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.22 with the optional BlueBubbles plugin contain an access control bypass
 vulnerability where empty allowFrom configuration causes dmPolicy pairing and allowlist restrictions to be
 ineffective. Remote attackers can send direct messages to BlueBubbles accounts by exploiting the
 misconfigured allowlist validation logic to bypass intended sender authorization checks. (CVE-2026-22170)

Solution

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