Description
OpenClaw before 2026.3.24 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the HTTP /v1/models endpoint that fails to enforce operator read scope requirements. Attackers with only operator.approvals scope can enumerate gateway model metadata through the HTTP compatibility route, bypassing the stricter WebSocket RPC authorization checks.
