PulseMon

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward PulseMon integration, with disclosed monitor management actions and no hidden code or persistence.

Install only if you intend your OpenClaw agent to manage PulseMon monitors using your API key. Confirm delete requests carefully, and do not include secrets, credentials, or sensitive personal data in ping body text because it is sent to PulseMon and can appear in alerts.

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
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • Tool MisuseTool Parameter Abuse, Chaining Abuse, Unsafe Defaults
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access

Tool Parameter Abuse

High
Category
Tool Misuse
Content
### Delete a monitor

`DELETE /api/v1/monitors/{id}`

### Pause a monitor
Confidence
80% confidence
Finding
Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding
This markdown file advertises a delete capability using natural-language commands, but it does not warn users that deleting a monitor may remove configuration or impact alerting coverage. For markdown files, the skill description should disclose behaviors that could affect user data or system integrity.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding
The markdown describes sending a `body` field containing job output and notes that it is included in alert notifications, but it does not warn users not to include secrets, personal data, or other sensitive content. Because this skill involves transmitting operational data to an external service and redistributing it via alerts, a user-facing caution is warranted.
