Summary

In affected versions of the optional Nextcloud Talk plugin (installed separately; not bundled with the core OpenClaw install), an untrusted webhook field (actor.name, display name) could be treated as an allowlist identifier. An attacker could change their Nextcloud display name to match an allowlisted user ID and bypass DM or room allowlists.

Details

Nextcloud Talk webhook payloads provide a stable sender identifier (actor.id) and a mutable display name (actor.name). In affected versions, the plugin’s allowlist matching accepted equality on the display name, which is attacker-controlled.

Affected Packages / Versions
