Start from `src/infra/net/fetch-guard.ts` and inspect how `fetchWithSsrFGuard` handles redirects, especially cross-origin 307/308 responses and any helper used to retain or strip headers. This source file has a known vulnerability sink in it. Traverse the codebase and report the vulnerability. You can report multiple vulnerabilities. Ground your report in whether unsafe request bodies and body-describing headers are replayed to a different origin, and identify any opt-in flag that changes that behavior.

{
  "executiveSummary": "The OpenClaw repository contains a vulnerability in the SSRF-guarded fetch implementation (`fetchWithSsrFGuard`) where the `allowCrossOriginUnsafeRedirectReplay` opt-in flag enables unsafe replay of request bodies and body-describing headers (Content-Type) to different origins on cross-origin 307/308 redirects. This allows attacker-controlled redirect endpoints to receive sensitive request payloads, enabling data exfiltration.",
  "reports": [
    {
      "title": "Cross-Origin 307/308 Redirect Body Replay Vulnerability in fetchWithSsrFGuard",
      "severity": "HIGH",
      "summary": "The `fetchWithSsrFGuard` function in `src/infra/net/fetch-guard.ts` contains a vulnerability where enabling the `allowCrossOriginUnsafeRedirectReplay` opt-in flag causes unsafe request bodies and body-describing headers (Content-Type) to be replayed to a different origin on cross-origin 307/308 redirects. This allows an attacker-controlled redirect hop to receive secret-bearing POST/PUT payloads, exposing sensitive data to unintended origins.",
      "rootCauseAnalysis": "The vulnerability exists in the interaction between `rewriteRedirectInitForCrossOrigin` and `retainSafeHeadersForCrossOriginRedirect`:\n\n1. In `rewriteRedirectInitForCrossOrigin` (lines 242-262), when `allowUnsafeReplay` is `true`, the function returns `init` unchanged, preserving both body and headers\n\n2. The code then calls `retainSafeHeadersForCrossOriginRedirect` which filters headers to only those in `CROSS_ORIGIN_REDIRECT_SAFE_HEADERS` (defined in `src/infra/net/redirect-headers.ts`, lines 4-17)\n\n3. Critically, `content-type` is included in `CROSS_ORIGIN_REDIRECT_SAFE_HEADERS` (line 11 of redirect-headers.ts)\n\n4. When `allowCrossOriginUnsafeRedirectReplay: true`:\n   - The body is preserved and replayed to the different origin\n   - Content-Type (a body-describing header) is also preserved in `retainSafeHeadersForCrossOriginRedirect`\n   - Only sensitive auth headers (Authorization, Cookie) are stripped\n\n5. This allows an attacker to receive both the request body AND metadata describing its content type, enabling data exfiltration of secrets that were intended for the original target.",
      "impact": "When `allowCrossOriginUnsafeRedirectReplay: true` is set:\n- Request bodies containing secrets (API keys, PII, credentials, payment data) are replayed to attacker-controlled origins on 307/308 redirects\n- Content-Type header is also preserved, allowing the attacker to properly parse exfiltrated data\n- This bypasses SSRF protections and enables data exfiltration from internal services that use `fetchWithSsrFGuard` with the unsafe opt-in flag\n\nThe impact is HIGH for any application that uses this flag and sends sensitive data in request bodies to potentially untrusted endpoints that could return redirects.",
      "attackPath": "1. Attacker sets up a malicious endpoint that returns a 307 or 308 redirect to an attacker-controlled server (e.g., https://attac

## Unreleased

### Fixes

- Slack: honor ambient HTTP(S) proxy settings for Socket Mode WebSocket connections, including NO_PROXY exclusions, so proxy-only deployments can connect without a monkey patch. (#62878) Thanks @mjamiv.
