Security audit
OpenClaw Recovery Drill
Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
Overview
This skill performs a disclosed local recovery-readiness check and does not show hidden, destructive, persistent, or network behavior.
Install only if you want an OpenClaw recovery-readiness audit. Run it against explicit workspace and backup paths you intend to inspect, and treat its output as potentially sensitive because it can include local backup locations, artifact names, and recovery gaps. Any actual restore should be done only in an isolated test path.
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
