Security audit

AIMPACT x ME News - AI-Powered Information Hub for Web4 & AI

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed Chinese AI news-reporting skill that fetches from listed ME News API endpoints and only uses scheduling or messaging if the user configures them.

Before installing, note that the skill fetches AI news from ME News API endpoints and may send reports through your existing message configuration if you choose to set that up. Only add the optional scheduled tasks if you want recurring reports, and review your OpenClaw message-channel settings because those credentials live outside the skill.

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
  • YARA SignaturesMalware Match, Webshell Match, Cryptominer Match
  • 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
