Summary

Before v2026.3.23, the Gateway agent RPC accepted /reset and /new for callers with only operator.write, even though the direct sessions.reset RPC correctly requires operator.admin.

Affected Packages / Versions

  • Package: openclaw (npm)
  • Affected: < 2026.3.23
  • Fixed: >= 2026.3.23
  • Latest released tag checked: v2026.3.23-2 (630f1479c44f78484dfa21bb407cbe6f171dac87)
  • Latest published npm version checked: 2026.3.23-2

Root Cause

The vulnerable path lived in src/gateway/server-methods/agent.ts. A /reset or /new message with an explicit sessionKey reached performGatewaySessionReset(...) without enforcing the same operator.admin guard used by sessions.reset.

Fix Commit(s)

  • 50f6a2f136fed85b58548a38f7a3dbb98d2cd1a0 — fix(gateway): require admin for agent session reset

Release Status

The fix commit is contained in released tags v2026.3.23 and v2026.3.23-2. The latest shipped tag and npm release both include the fix.

Code-Level Confirmation

  • src/gateway/server-methods/agent.ts now rejects /reset and /new for callers that do not have operator.admin before calling performGatewaySessionReset(...).
  • src/gateway/server-methods/agent.test.ts contains the regression test rejects /reset for write-scoped gateway callers.
