Security audit

Self Improver Lite

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed reliability-audit helper that can make limited operational fixes, but users should review its automatic restart and configuration-change behavior.

Before installing, make sure you are comfortable with the agent restarting the OpenClaw gateway, cleaning sessions, and adjusting context/token or fallback settings under the listed conditions. Consider requiring confirmation for restarts or config edits in production environments.

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

Finding

The skill explicitly permits automatic operational changes such as gateway restarts and configuration tuning, but it does not present a clear user-facing warning or confirmation boundary before those actions occur. In an agent setting, even 'low-risk' operational changes can cause downtime, alter runtime behavior, or mask deeper issues if applied automatically without explicit operator awareness.
