Summary

The ClawHavoc campaign continues to abuse ClawHub and the OpenClaw ecosystem to distribute infostealer malware through malicious skills. New reporting says the operation now includes 386 malicious skills that pose as cryptocurrency trading automation tools and borrow brand names such as ByBit, Polymarket, Axiom, Reddit and LinkedIn to encourage installs. The skills target macOS and Windows users and rely on social engineering to get victims to run commands that steal exchange API keys, wallet private keys, SSH credentials and browser passwords. The activity uses shared C2 infrastructure 91.92.242.30, and the most popular malicious publisher, hightower6eu, accounted for almost 7000 downloads.

    Koi Security discloses ClawHavoc malicious ClawHub skills

    Initial Disclosure

    Koi Security disclosed that a security audit of 2,857 ClawHub skills found 341 malicious skills across multiple campaigns targeting OpenClaw users, including a ClawHavoc set of 335 skills that used fake prerequisites to push Atomic Stealer (AMOS) on Windows and macOS. The malicious listings used typosquatted ClawHub-style names, staged downloads such as openclaw-agent.zip and glot[.]io scripts, and shared 91.92.242[.]30 infrastructure; some skills also hid reverse shells or exfiltrated credentials from ~/.clawdbot/.env to webhook[.]site.
