OpenClaw: Device-Paired Node Skips Node Scope Gate → Host RCE.md
Summary
Device-Paired Node Skips Node Scope Gate → Host RCE.md
Current Maintainer Triage
- Status: open
- Normalized severity: high
- Assessment: Real in shipped v2026.3.28 because a merely device-paired node could expose node commands without node pairing, but high is sufficient given the pairing/setup prerequisites.
