Security audit

OpenClaw SEO-GEO Workflow

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is a coherent SEO publishing runbook, but it delegates important work to unaudited local scripts and can trigger production-impacting deploy and diagnostic access.

Install only if you trust and control the external /Users/m1/.openclaw/workspace scripts and deployment environment. Before using live deploy or main-site write paths, verify the scripts, dependency versions, credentials, and deployment target, and avoid broad log or messaging-session inspection unless explicitly needed and sanitized.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • 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

Session Persistence

Medium
Category
Rogue Agent
Confidence
75% confidence
Finding

Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
