CVE-2026-32919
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedOpenClaw before 2026.3.11 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability allowing write-scoped callers to reach admin-only session reset logic. Attackers with operator.write scope can issue agent requests containing /new or /reset slash commands to reset targeted conversation state without holding operator.admin privileges.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceOpenClaw before version 2026.3.11 contains an authorization bypass where users holding only operator.write scope can access admin-only session reset functionality. By issuing agent requests containing /new or /reset slash commands, attackers can reset targeted conversation state without possessing the required operator.admin privileges.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify installed OpenClaw versionRun the command to retrieve the OpenClaw version (e.g., openclaw --version, or check version file in installation directory)Affected if Version is lower than 2026.3.11
-
Check session reset slash commands availabilityInspect the agent request handler or command routing configuration to confirm /new and /reset slash commands are exposedAffected if These commands are enabled and accessible in the deployment
-
Verify user scope assignmentsReview the user or service account configuration to determine what scopes are assigned (operator.write, operator.admin)Affected if Users or agents are assigned operator.write scope without operator.admin
-
Test authorization boundary for session resetSubmit an agent request containing /new or /reset command using a credential that has only operator.write scope, observe if the session resets successfullyAffected if The request succeeds and resets conversation state without returning an authorization error
-
Inspect authorization policy configurationExamine the authorization policy file or settings that govern which scopes permit session reset operationsAffected if Policy does not enforce operator.admin requirement for /new or /reset endpoints
Environment is affected if running OpenClaw version below 2026.3.11 and users with only operator.write scope can successfully execute session reset via /new or /reset slash commands.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped2026.3.11
Upgrade to OpenClaw 2026.3.11 or later, which enforces proper authorization checks ensuring session reset operations require operator.admin privileges.
2026.3.11
- Upgrade OpenClaw to version 2026.3.11 or later to remediate the authorization bypass vulnerability
