OpenClaw: Feishu webhook mode accepted forged events when only `verificationToken` was configured

High severity GitHub Reviewed Published Mar 13, 2026 in openclaw/openclaw • Updated Mar 13, 2026

Package

npm openclaw (npm)

Affected versions

<= 2026.3.11

Patched versions

2026.3.12

Description

Summary

Feishu webhook mode allowed deployments that configured only verificationToken without encryptKey. In that state, forged inbound events could be accepted because the weaker configuration did not provide the required cryptographic verification boundary.

Impact

An unauthenticated network attacker who could reach the webhook endpoint could inject forged Feishu events, impersonate senders, and potentially trigger downstream tool execution subject to the local agent policy.

Affected versions

openclaw <= 2026.3.11

Patch

Fixed in openclaw 2026.3.12. Feishu webhook mode now fails closed unless encryptKey is configured, and the webhook transport rejects missing or invalid signatures before dispatch. Update to 2026.3.12 or later and configure encryptKey for webhook deployments.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
