Given the revelations about Verin and her "studies" I wonder if this is a clue about Sorilea...
Winter's Heart
Wonderful News
"She is ... formidable," Verin murmured. "I am very glad she is on our side. If she is."
Cadsuane gave her a sharp look. "You have the appearance of a woman with something to say that you don't want to. About Sorilea?" That alliance was very vaguely denned. Friendship or no friendship, she and the Wise One still might turn out to be aiming at different goals.
After TGS I'm starting to think that one of the WO is a DF or else how would Elza have known where to find the Domination Bands, only Sorilea and Bair were seen to be shown where Cadsuane had it hidden.

An interesting observation, but I do not think that Sorilea is a Darkfriend. Surely, Elza could have overheard that Cadsuane had the Domination Band or Semi could have deduced the same. It is not a giant step away from that to conclude that Cadsuane would keep the DB warded and hidden in her quarters. As an channeler from the AOL Semi could surely have the skill to detect and unravel the wards.
From Verin's comments above, she could also be just trying to create suspicion about the WO. Part of her orders perhaps?

Sorilea never saw the wards unraveled. And I'm pretty sure they were inverted.

inverted yes, but she was standing right there when Cadsuane unwove them

I think Bsand or RJ stated that Shaidar Haran could not do that himself, which is why he needed Elza
