Summary

Hide ▲

OpenClaw, an AI-powered automation framework, has gained significant attention due to its potential security risks, particularly in its plugin ecosystem. The framework allows users to manage emails, schedules, and system tasks through modular 'skills' that can be installed from a marketplace called ClawHub. Security researchers have identified critical vulnerabilities, including remote code execution and credential theft, which have led to discussions across security research feeds, Telegram channels, and underground forums. While the framework has not yet been fully weaponized for mass exploitation, the supply chain risks associated with its plugin ecosystem are real and pose a significant threat.
