What It Checks
| Check | Risk Level | Pattern |
|---|---|---|
| Network Exfiltration | 🚨 HIGH | requests., urllib, http.client, socket., fetch(, axios |
| Credential Harvesting | 🚨 HIGH | .ssh/, .aws/, pass , keyring, credential, secret, token file reads |
| Code Injection | 🚨 CRITICAL | exec(, eval(, compile(, Function(, __import__ |
| Obfuscation | ⚠️ MEDIUM | base64.decode, atob, encoded payloads |
| Env Dumping | ⚠️ MEDIUM | os.environ, process.env, getenv bulk access |
| Subprocess Abuse | ⚠️ MEDIUM | subprocess.run, os.system, child_process with credentials |
Severity Levels
- CRITICAL (🚨): Block installation, report to owner
- HIGH (🔴): Requires manual review before use
- MEDIUM (🟡): Note but allow if from trusted source
- LOW (🟢): Informational only
Safe Skill Checklist
Before using any skill:
- ✅ Is it from a trusted source? (official OpenClaw, known publisher)
- ✅ Is the code readable (not obfuscated)?
- ✅ Does it document why it needs network/credential access?
- ✅ Does it scope file access to its own directory?
- ✅ Has it been audited by the community?
Integration with AGENTS.md
Add this to your workflow:
## Skill Installation Protocol
Before loading any new skill:
1. Run `~/workspace/skills/skill-security/audit.sh <skill-path>`
2. If CRITICAL/HIGH findings → STOP, alert the user
3. If MEDIUM findings → Review manually, proceed if justified
4. If CLEAN → Safe to use
Automatic Protection
The scanner creates a blocklist at ./blocklist.txt.
Skills with CRITICAL findings are automatically added.
Manual Override
If a skill is flagged but you've verified it's safe:
echo "skill-name:verified:YYYY-MM-DD:reason" >> allowlist.txt
