fix(security): OC-25 — Validate OAuth state parameter to prevent CSRF attacks (#16058)
* fix(security): validate OAuth state parameter to prevent CSRF attacks (OC-25)
The parseOAuthCallbackInput() function in the Chutes OAuth flow had two
critical bugs that completely defeated CSRF state validation:
1. State extracted from callback URL was never compared against the
expected cryptographic nonce, allowing attacker-controlled state values
2. When URL parsing failed (bare authorization code input), the catch block
fabricated a matching state using expectedState, making the caller's
CSRF check always pass
## Attack Flow
1. Victim runs `openclaw login chutes --manual`
2. System generates cryptographic state: randomBytes(16).toString("hex")
3. Browser opens: https://api.chutes.ai/idp/authorize?state=abc123...
4. Attacker obtains their OWN OAuth authorization code (out of band)
5. Attacker tricks victim into pasting just "EVIL_CODE" (not full URL)
6. parseOAuthCallbackInput("EVIL_CODE", "abc123...") is called
7. new URL("EVIL_CODE") throws → catch block executes
8. catch returns { code: "EVIL_CODE", state: "abc123..." } ← FABRICATED
9. Caller checks: parsed.state !== state → "abc123..." !== "abc123..." → FALSE
10. CSRF check passes! System calls exchangeChutesCodeForTokens()
11. Attacker's code exchanged for access + refresh tokens
12. Victim's account linked to attacker's OAuth session
Fix:
- Add explicit state validation against expectedState before returning
- Remove state fabrication from catch block; always return error for
non-URL input
- Add comprehensive unit tests for state validation
Remediated by Aether AI Agent security analysis.

- Security: fix Chutes manual OAuth login state validation (thanks @aether-ai-agent). (#16058)
|
||||
- macOS: hard-limit unkeyed `openclaw://agent` deep links and ignore `deliver` / `to` / `channel` unless a valid unattended key is provided. Thanks @Cillian-Collins.
