π‘ What
Disabled cleartext traffic globally for the application by removing
android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"fromAndroidManifest.xmland updatingnetwork_security_config.xmltocleartextTrafficPermitted="false".π― Why
To address the top security priority (insecure transport). Allowing cleartext traffic leaves the application vulnerable to interception and man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks if it inadvertently attempts to communicate over unencrypted HTTP or WS channels.
This change globally enforces HTTPS/WSS. Because OpenClaw often communicates with local hardware gateways (which frequently do not have proper TLS certificates configured), this strict security enforcement will likely break core local hardware connectivity (e.g., discovery or direct IP connections) unless those connections are selectively whitelisted or local TLS is configured. This is a known trade-off when globally hardening transport security.
