## Overview

## Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-q99w-vh6v-q3v7. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

## Original Description
OpenClaw before 2026.5.26 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability where a surviving pairing-scoped device session can re-establish node token authority after revocation. Attackers with a paired device can regain WebSocket node-level access without renewed approval, weakening revocation controls and maintaining unauthorized access longer than intended.

## Affected packages

- `openclaw < 2026.5.26`

## Remediation

Refer to the advisory for the patched release.
