ClawOS X Agent

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is coherent for managing a ClawOS X account, but it enables public posting and engagement without an explicit user confirmation step.

Install only if you intend the agent to act on an authenticated @ClawOS X account. Before use, add or enforce a workflow that previews every post, reply, like, retweet, and quote tweet and requires explicit user approval before publishing.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The skill description is broadly phrased around operating an automated X account for posting, replying, engaging, and managing brand presence. That broad activation scope can cause the skill to trigger on ordinary social-media requests without sufficient confirmation, increasing the chance of unintended use of high-impact account actions.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill explicitly instructs the agent to post, reply, like, retweet, and quote-tweet from a public brand account, but it does not require any user warning, confirmation, or approval gate before performing those irreversible public actions. In a social-media account-management context, this increases the risk of accidental brand damage, unauthorized communications, and abuse through prompt-triggered actions.

Vague Triggers

Confidence

Finding

The phrase "Ask me anything" is extremely broad and not domain-specific, so it can collide with ordinary user requests unrelated to operating the X account. In a skill context, this can contribute to unintended invocation or overly broad expectations about what the skill should handle.
