Qordinate - Durable lists, facts, and reminders for OpenClaw agents.

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill clearly provides a real Qordinate memory integration, but it gives a remote agent broad lasting access to store, change, delete, share, and automate user data without enough scoping or confirmation guidance.

Review before installing. Use a narrowly scoped Qordinate API key if available, avoid sending secrets or sensitive personal data, and require explicit confirmation before storing information permanently, deleting or sharing documents, interacting with connected apps, or creating automations.

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

Finding

The skill exposes a single natural-language tool, query_agent, that can perform broad read/write actions across documents, contacts, tasks, forms, automations, web search, and connected apps, but it does not warn users that free-form prompts may trigger destructive or privacy-impacting operations. Because the interface is highly permissive and abstracts multiple capabilities behind one tool, users and upstream agents may underestimate the scope of actions, increasing the risk of accidental data modification, sharing, automation setup, or third-party app interaction.
