CVE-2026-100544: openclaw voice-call authorization bypass in inbound calling

CVE-2026-100544 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.8 · Published 2026-09-26

openclaw's voice-call package enables AI agents to handle inbound voice calls in enterprise deployments. Before version 2026.8.1, the system fails to verify the caller's identity and strips their non-owner status, allowing any admitted caller to execute owner-only actions. An attacker who passes the inbound call admission policy can read sensitive data, modify files, execute commands, or control connected services that the agent has access to.

Technologies: Openclaw Voice-Call. Vendors: Openclaw.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a missing authorization check (CWE-862) in the voice-call package's inbound call handler. Classic inbound voice calls launch the configured agent without propagating caller identity or non-owner status, causing owner-only tool filters to fail open. An unauthenticated remote attacker on the network can bypass the check by being admitted through an open, pairing, or allowlist inbound-call policy on a deployment with inbound calling enabled; the fix propagates caller identity information in version 2026.8.1 and later.
