Description

Summary

skills.status could disclose secrets to operator.read clients by returning raw resolved config values in configChecks for skill requires.config paths.

Affected Packages / Versions

  • Package: openclaw (npm)
  • Affected: <= 2026.2.13
  • Patched: 2026.2.14

Details

The gateway method skills.status returned a requirements report that included configChecks[].value (the resolved value for each requires.config entry). If a skill required a broad config subtree (for example channels.discord), the report could include secrets such as Discord bot tokens.

skills.status is callable with operator.read, so read-scoped clients could obtain secrets without operator.admin / config.* access.

Fix

  • Stop including raw resolved config values in requirement checks (return only { path, satisfied }).
  • Narrow the Discord skill requirement to the token key.

Fix commit(s):

  • d3428053d95eefbe10ecf04f92218ffcba55ae5a
  • ebc68861a61067fc37f9298bded3eec9de0ba783

Mitigation

Rotate any Discord tokens that may have been exposed to read-scoped clients.

Thanks @simecek for reporting.


Fix commits d3428053d95eefbe10ecf04f92218ffcba55ae5a and ebc68861a61067fc37f9298bded3eec9de0ba783 confirmed on main and in v2026.2.14. Upgrade to openclaw >= 2026.2.14.
