How to Fix GHSA-xg59-f45v-9r9j

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Duplicate Advisory dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

openclaw fixed: 2026.3.8
npm install openclaw@2026.3.8
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

npm ls openclaw

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by GHSA-xg59-f45v-9r9j, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls openclaw

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Duplicate Advisory in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2026.3.8), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls openclaw command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-863: Incorrect Authorization, where the product performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action, but it does not correctly perform the check. In Duplicate Advisory, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-g7cr-9h7q-4qxq. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ### Original Description OpenClaw before 2026.3.8 contains a sender allowlist bypass vulnerability in its Microsoft Teams plugin that allows unauthorized senders to bypass intended authorization checks. When a team/channel route allowlist is configured with an empty groupAllowFrom parameter, the message handler synthesizes wildcard sender authorization, permitting any sender in the matched team/channel to trigger replies in allowlisted Teams routes.
