CVE-2026-28464
Last modified
CVE-2026-28464 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.2/10 on the CVSS scale. OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.12 use non-constant-time string comparison for hook token validation, allowing attackers to infer tokens through timing measurements. Remote attackers with network access to the hooks endpoint can exploit timing side-channels across multiple requests to gradually determine the authentication token.. EPSS estimates a 0.39% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
