OpenClaw has a Trusted-proxy Control UI pairing bypass which allows unpaired node sessions
Summary
A trusted-proxy Control UI pairing bypass accepted client.id=control-ui without device identity checks. The bypass did not require operator role, so an authenticated node role session could connect unpaired and reach node event methods.
Impact
With trusted-proxy authentication enabled, a node role websocket client could skip pairing by using client.id=control-ui. That created an authorization boundary bypass from a node-scoped connection into node event execution flows.
