## Overview

## Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-985f-72mj-8gf7. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

## Original Description
OpenClaw before 2026.4.25 contains an input validation vulnerability in tool group policy callers that accept unvalidated group IDs. Attackers who can supply a group ID to the policy resolver could trigger incorrect group-policy decisions for tool invocations, potentially bypassing intended access controls.

## Affected packages

- `openclaw <= 2026.4.24`

## Remediation

Refer to the advisory for the patched release.
