Openclaw Testing
Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
Overview
ClawScan classifies this testing skill as benign because the completed checks reported no security findings, though unresolved references leave the evidence incomplete and overall confidence is medium.
The verdict is benign, but benign does not mean risk-free. The scans found no issues, yet Skillspector marked its analysis partial because several local references were missing or outside the scan scope. Consider whether you trust the skill source and review the referenced material before installing; the evidence does not confirm what those missing paths contain.
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
Vulnerability Patterns
- Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
- Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
- Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
- Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
- Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
