OpenClaw versions before 2026.7.1 fail to properly validate owner authorization in the Codex computer-use installation command. Non-owner channel senders can install arbitrary plugins and execute MCP processes with OpenClaw user privileges, affecting host confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
