OpenClaw < 2026.5.12 - Slack Reaction Event Notification Bypass

Collected exploitation and prediction evidence

Risk source coverage

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

cve-program · CVE-2026-53851

Published

OpenClaw before 2026.5.12 contains a notification bypass vulnerability allowing Slack reaction events to enter the agent pipeline despite disabled reaction notifications. Attackers can trigger unintended agent processing by sending reaction events when the feature is enabled, potentially leading to unauthorized processing of lower-trust input.

Published

### Summary Slack reaction events could ignore reaction notification settings. In affected versions, a Slack reaction event delivered to the configured app could enter the agent pipeline even when reaction notifications were disabled. This advisory is scoped to the named feature and configuration. It does not change OpenClaw's trusted-operator model: authenticated Gateway operators, installed plugins, and intentional local execution surfaces remain trusted unless a separate policy, approval, allowlist, sandbox, or auth boundary is crossed. ### Impact When the affected feature is enabled and reachable, this could trigger unintended agent processing for reaction events. Practical impact depends on the operator's configuration and whether lower-trust input can reach that path. ### Patched Versions The first stable patched version is `2026.5.12`. ### Mitigations disable or restrict Slack reaction event subscriptions until patched if this path is not needed. As general hardening, keep channel and tool allowlists narrow, avoid sharing one Gateway between mutually untrusted users, and disable the affected feature when it is not needed.
