Overview

openclaw is a 🦞 OpenClaw — Personal AI Assistant

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File via the memory embedding failover logic, where the primary embedding provider's configured API key is reused when a request is redirected to a fallback provider. When remote embedding fallback is configured and the primary provider fails, the credential is transmitted as a bearer token to an unintended vendor. The practical impact depends on the configured providers, whether failover occurs, and the privileges attached to the primary provider key.

Note: This is only exploitable when remote embedding fallback is configured and the primary embedding provider fails, causing a cross-provider failover.
