+  "details": "## Summary\nBefore `v2026.3.23`, the Gateway `agent` RPC accepted `/reset` and `/new` for callers with only `operator.write`, even though the direct `sessions.reset` RPC correctly requires `operator.admin`.\n\n## Affected Packages / Versions\n- Package: `openclaw` (npm)\n- Affected: `< 2026.3.23`\n- Fixed: `>= 2026.3.23`\n- Latest released tag checked: `v2026.3.23-2` (`630f1479c44f78484dfa21bb407cbe6f171dac87`)\n- Latest published npm version checked: `2026.3.23-2`\n\n## Root Cause\nThe vulnerable path lived in `src/gateway/server-methods/agent.ts`. A `/reset` or `/new` message with an explicit `sessionKey` reached `performGatewaySessionReset(...)` without enforcing the same `operator.admin` guard used by `sessions.reset`.\n\n## Fix Commit(s)\n- `50f6a2f136fed85b58548a38f7a3dbb98d2cd1a0` — `fix(gateway): require admin for agent session reset`\n\n## Release Status\nThe fix commit is contained in released tags `v2026.3.23` and `v2026.3.23-2`. The latest shipped tag and npm release both include the fix.\n\n## Code-Level Confirmation\n- `src/gateway/server-methods/agent.ts` now rejects `/reset` and `/new` for callers that do not have `operator.admin` before calling `performGatewaySessionReset(...)`.\n- `src/gateway/server-methods/agent.test.ts` contains the regression test `rejects /reset for write-scoped gateway callers`.\n\nOpenClaw thanks @smaeljaish771 for reporting.",
