CrazyOzzy Auto Updater

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill openly helps users schedule OpenClaw and skill updates, but users should understand it can change installed software automatically.

Install this only if you want recurring automatic updates. Before enabling it, consider using the dry-run/status commands first, choose a maintenance time, and be aware that OpenClaw or skill updates can change behavior or require follow-up if an update fails.

A.I.G

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly automates `openclaw update` and `clawhub update --all`, which can change installed software and skill code on a schedule without requiring a fresh user confirmation at execution time. Even though updating is the stated purpose of the skill, unattended modification of software increases the risk of unexpected breakage, supply-chain issues, or incompatible skill changes if the user is not clearly warned and given safer preview options.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The scheduled routine explicitly performs automatic updates and may run unattended, but the guidance does not make the user-facing risk prominent at the point where the scheduler job is defined. Because `openclaw update` can change system state and may restart the gateway, omission of a clear warning can lead to unexpected downtime, disruptive restarts, or updates being enabled without informed consent.
