Security Recommendations for openclaw-warden

Audit external network connections

openclaw-warden connects to external endpoints. Verify every outbound connection goes to a trusted destination. Unauthorized callbacks are a primary indicator of ClawHavoc malware and data exfiltration. ClawSecure's proprietary engine monitors for known malicious endpoints including C2 infrastructure.

Add a config.json permissions manifest

A config.json file declares what an agent component can access: file system, network, shell execution and more. Without it, users have no visibility into what the component can do before installing. This is the single most impactful security improvement for any AI agent skill.

Pin dependencies to exact versions

Unpinned dependencies allow supply-chain attacks where a compromised version is pulled in automatically. Use exact version numbers in package.json (for example 1.2.3 instead of ^1.2.3) to keep unauthorized code out of your dependency tree. ClawSecure checks every dependency against known CVE databases.
