OpenClaw < 2026.4.8 - WebSocket Session Persistence via Shared Gateway Token Rotation

OpenClaw before 2026.4.8 contains a session management vulnerability where existing WebSocket sessions survive shared gateway token rotation. Attackers can maintain unauthorized access to WebSocket connections after token rotation by exploiting the failure to disconnect existing shared-token sessions.
