OpenClaw Security Audit

Run a comprehensive security audit on your local OpenClaw installation. Covers 6 security domains mapped to MITRE ATLAS threat categories.

When to Use

• User asks to "check security", "audit my openclaw", "is my config secure?"
• User mentions concerns about API key leaks, exposed ports, or privacy
• After changing OpenClaw configuration (gateway, channels, tools, etc.)
• User wants a security report (HTML or JSON)

When NOT to Use

• General system security questions unrelated to OpenClaw
• User is asking about a different application
• User just wants to know what OpenClaw is

Setup

Check if the audit tool is installed:

ls ~/openclaw-security-audit/audit.sh 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT_INSTALLED"

If not installed, clone it:

git clone https://github.com/sunt23310-ops/openclaw-security-audit.git ~/openclaw-security-audit

Running Checks

AUDIT_DIR="$HOME/openclaw-security-audit"

Quick Check (critical items only, ~5 seconds)

bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/gateway.sh" && bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/credentials.sh"

Full Audit (all 6 modules)

for check in gateway credentials channels tools network system; do
  bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/${check}.sh"
done

Individual Checks

Match the user's concern to the right module:

User asks about	Command
Gateway, ports, binding, auth, TLS	bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/gateway.sh"
API keys, passwords, file permissions, history leaks	bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/credentials.sh"
WhatsApp, Telegram, DM policy, allowFrom	bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/channels.sh"
Sandbox, denyCommands, tool restrictions	bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/tools.sh"
IP leak, exposed ports, firewall, Shodan/Censys	bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/network.sh"
macOS SIP, FileVault, TCC, iCloud sync	bash "$AUDIT_DIR/checks/system.sh"

Auto-Fix (requires explicit user confirmation for each fix)

bash "$AUDIT_DIR/fixes/interactive-fix.sh"

Specific fixes:

• bash "$AUDIT_DIR/fixes/gateway-fix.sh" — bind gateway to localhost, generate strong token
• bash "$AUDIT_DIR/fixes/permission-fix.sh" — fix file/directory permissions
• bash "$AUDIT_DIR/fixes/channel-fix.sh" — fix DM policy, allowFrom, requireMention

Generate Report

bash "$AUDIT_DIR/audit.sh"

Then select option 5 for HTML or JSON report output.

Output Format

Each check outputs lines prefixed with:

• [PASS] — check passed, no action needed
• [WARN] — potential issue, review recommended
• [FAIL] — security issue found, fix recommended
• [SKIP] — check skipped (component not installed or not applicable)

After running checks, summarize results clearly. If there are FAIL items, recommend the appropriate fix script and explain what it will do before the user confirms.

Important Notes

• This tool is read-only by default. Fix scripts require explicit user confirmation for each change.
• The IP leak check (network module) will ask before sending your IP to external services (Shodan, Censys).
• All checks gracefully skip if OpenClaw is not installed or a component is missing.
• On Linux, macOS-specific checks (SIP, FileVault, TCC) are automatically skipped.
