CVE-2026-100595 · Severity: medium · CVSS 6.5 · Published 2026-09-26

OpenClaw is a messaging platform that restricts access to host diagnostic bundles to owners only. A vulnerability in versions before 2026.7.1 allows non-owner participants in a channel to request and receive these owner-only diagnostic bundles, exposing sensitive information about the host configuration, runtime, and connected services. An attacker with basic channel access can retrieve confidential infrastructure details without proper authorization.

## Technical details

The /diagnostics command in OpenClaw fails to properly validate owner authorization before returning host diagnostic bundles, allowing any authorized channel sender to access data intended only for owners. This is a missing authorization check (CWE-862) resulting in exposure of sensitive information (CWE-200). Attack requires network access and low-privilege channel membership with no user interaction needed; the vulnerability is resolved in version 2026.7.1.
