CVE-2026-43579
OpenClaw before 2026.4.10 contains an insufficient access control vulnerability in Nostr plugin HTTP profile routes that allows operators with write permissions to persist profile configuration without requiring admin authority.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.22%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
