OpenClaw Bypasses DM Policy Separation via Synology Chat Webhook Path Collision
CVE-2026-35635GHSA-rqp8-q22p-5j9q
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (openclaw 2026.3.22), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Summary Synology Chat multi-account configuration could collapse onto a shared webhook path, replacing route ownership and bypassing per-account DM policy separation. Affected Packages / Versions - Package: openclaw (npm) - Affected: < 2026.3.22 - Fixed: = 2026.3.22 - Latest released tag checked: v2026.3.23-2 (630f1479c44f78484dfa21bb407cbe6f171dac87) - Latest published npm version checked: 2026.3.23-2 Fix Commit(s) - 980940aa58f862da4e19372597bbc2a9f268d70b Release Status The fix shipped in v2026.3.22 and remains present in v2026.3.23 and v2026.3.23-2. Code-Level Confirmation - extensions/synology-chat/src/accounts.ts now distinguishes inherited base webhook paths from explicit per-account paths. - extensions/synology-chat/src/gateway-runtime.ts now fails closed on inherited or duplicate webhook paths and registers routes without replacement. OpenClaw thanks @tdjackey for reporting.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-35635 Advisory: OpenClaw Bypasses DM Policy Separation via Synology Chat Webhook Path Collision IDs: CVE-2026-35635, GHSA-rqp8-q22p-5j9q Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-35635 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 12:48 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.9) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: openclaw 2026.3.22. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - npm openclaw: affected < 2026.3.22; fixed in 2026.3.22 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `npm ls openclaw --all`: lists every installed copy and version, including transitive ones. Run in the project root after `npm ci`. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on openclaw. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-rqp8-q22p-5j9q (OSV record GHSA-rqp8-q22p-5j9q lists affected ranges: npm openclaw >=0 <2026.3.22 (fixed)) - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-rqp8-q22p-5j9q (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-rqp8-q22p-5j9q lists affected ranges: npm openclaw >=0 <2026.3.22) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
