CVE-2026-28475
Last modified
CVE-2026-28475 is a low-severity vulnerability rated 3.7/10 on the CVSS scale. OpenClaw versions prior to 2026.2.13 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 recover the authentication token.. EPSS estimates a 0.28% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
