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 · unedited
OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 contains a webhook replay vulnerability in Plivo V3 signature verification that canonicalizes query ordering for signatures but hashes raw URLs for replay detection. Attackers can reorder query parameters to bypass replay cache detection and trigger duplicate voice-call processing with a captured valid signed webhook.

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 · high confidence

OpenClaw before 2026.3.28 has a webhook replay vulnerability in Plivo V3 signature verification where query parameter ordering is canonicalized for signature validation but raw URL hashing is used for replay detection. This inconsistency allows attackers to reorder query parameters to bypass the replay cache and reprocess captured valid signed webhooks for duplicate voice-call processing.

MitigationUpgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.3.28 or later which fixes the URL canonicalization inconsistency between signature verification and replay detection.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify OpenClaw version
    Locate the installed OpenClaw package and retrieve its version number, typically found in package metadata, a version file, or via a version command (e.g., openclaw --version or package manager query).
    Affected if The installed version is earlier than 2026.3.28 (any version < 2026.3.28 is vulnerable).
  2. Confirm Plivo V3 integration is in use
    Inspect the OpenClaw configuration files or webhook endpoint settings to determine whether the Plivo V3 signature verification module is enabled. Look for Plivo-related configuration sections, environment variables, or webhook handler registrations.
    Affected if Plivo V3 webhook handling is configured and active in the environment.
  3. Examine URL canonicalization handling
    Review the code or configuration related to webhook signature verification and replay detection. Specifically inspect how query parameters are processed: check if signature validation uses canonicalized parameter ordering while replay detection uses raw URL hashing.
    Affected if The signature verification path and replay detection path handle URL query parameter ordering differently (one canonicalizes, the other does not).
  4. Verify replay cache mechanism
    Inspect the replay detection implementation to confirm it uses raw URL hashing (without parameter ordering normalization) to check for duplicate webhook requests.
    Affected if The replay cache uses raw URL string hashing for duplicate detection, allowing reordered query parameters to bypass the cache.

You are affected if OpenClaw version is below 2026.3.28 AND the Plivo V3 webhook signature verification feature is enabled, with inconsistent URL handling between signature validation and replay detection.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 2026.3.28 or later
Fixed in 2026.3.28
Interim mitigation

Upgrade to OpenClaw version 2026.3.28 or later which fixes the URL canonicalization inconsistency between signature verification and replay detection.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

OpenClaw 2026.3.28

  1. Identify all OpenClaw installations running versions before 2026.3.28 that handle Plivo V3 webhooks
  2. Review current Plivo webhook configuration to understand the signature verification implementation
  3. Upgrade OpenClaw to version 2026.3.28 or later to obtain the fixed signature verification logic
  4. After upgrade, verify that Plivo V3 signature verification is functioning correctly
  5. Test replay attack prevention by confirming that reordered query parameters on captured webhooks are now properly detected as replays
  6. Monitor webhook processing logs to ensure duplicate voice-call processing is no longer occurring
