### Summary (Updated March 2, 2026) Encoded alternate-path requests could bypass plugin route auth checks for `/api/channels/*` due to canonicalization depth mismatch in vulnerable builds. ### Affected Packages / Versions - Package: `openclaw` (npm) - Latest published vulnerable version: `2026.3.1` - Affected range: `<= 2026.3.1` - Patched release: `2026.3.2` (`patched_versions: >= 2026.3.2`) ### Technical Details In affected versions, plugin auth-path classification and route-path canonicalization could diverge for deeply encoded slash variants (for example multi-encoded `%2f`). That mismatch allowed alternate encoded paths to evade protected-prefix auth checks while still resolving to `/api/channels/...` in plugin route handling. The fix set hardens this class of issue by: - canonicalizing route paths to a bounded fixpoint, - failing closed on malformed or unresolved canonicalization depth, - requiring explicit plugin-route auth contracts (no implicit auth default), - enforcing route ownership/conflict guards for duplicate route registrations, and - using shared webhook route lifecycle registration to avoid stale/conflicting route surfaces. ### Affected Deployments Deployments exposing plugin HTTP routes and relying on gateway auth for `/api/channels/*` protection. ### Fix Commit(s) - `93b07240257919f770d1e263e1f22753937b80ea` - `2fd8264ab03bd178e62a5f0c50d1c8556c17f12d` - `d74bc257d8432f17e50b23ae713d7e0623a1fe0f` - `7a7eee920a176a0043398c6b37bf4cc6eb983eeb`
