Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
## Summary
Gateway Plugin Subagent Fallback `deleteSession` Uses Synthetic `operator.admin`
## Affected Packages / Versions
- Package: `openclaw`
- Affected versions: `<= 2026.3.24`
- First patched version: `2026.3.25`
- Latest published npm version at verification time: `2026.3.24`
## Details
Gateway plugin subagent fallback `deleteSession` previously dispatched `sessions.delete` with a synthetic `operator.admin` runtime scope when no request-scoped client existed. Commit `b5d785f1a59a56c3471f2cef328f7c9a6c15f3e7` binds deletion to the caller scope instead of minting admin scope.
Verified vulnerable on tag `v2026.3.24` and fixed on `main` by commit `b5d785f1a59a56c3471f2cef328f7c9a6c15f3e7`.
## Fix Commit(s)
- `b5d785f1a59a56c3471f2cef328f7c9a6c15f3e7`
