Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The package automatically downloads and runs a demo server, then exposes and registers it through a public tunnel when the gateway starts and no Liveware apps exist. This appears related to the integration and is configurable, but the default behavior warrants a warning because it publishes a service without a separate user request. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 87.0% - **Started:** 2026-11-03T05:32:41.361Z - **Finished:** 2026-11-03T05:34:05.091Z - **Download time:** 757 ms - **Static scan time:** 1339 ms - **AI review time:** 81633 ms - **Total time:** 83730 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** A default-on startup feature downloads and runs a Liveware demo, then exposes it through a public tunnel and registers it to the account. - **Trigger:** ClawChat gateway startup when \`livewareSample\` is enabled (the default) and the account has no Liveware apps. - **Impact:** Starts a publicly reachable demo service and creates an account app without a separate user request; owners can disable the feature through configuration. - **Evidence paths:** src/config.ts, src/runtime.ts, src/liveware-sample.ts, src/liveware-cli.ts - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-11-03T05:34:05.091Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Fetches sample files from the Clawling install-cli GitHub raw host, starts the sample with Node, binds a Liveware tunnel, and registers the app using the account's Clawling integration. - **Rationale:** The package automatically downloads and runs a demo server, then exposes and registers it through a public tunnel when the gateway starts and no Liveware apps exist. This appears related to the integration and is configurable, but the default behavior warrants a warning because it publishes a service without a separate user request. - **Files touched:** \/app, \/app.tmp-\*, \/.clawling - **Network endpoints:** raw.githubusercontent.com/clawling/clawchat-plugin-install-cli, media.clawling.chat, app.clawling.com, Liveware-assigned public tunnel domain (dynamic) ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 87.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Unknown - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The Liveware Sample auto-install option defaults to true., Gateway startup creates and starts a Liveware Sample supervisor using that option., When no Liveware apps exist, the supervisor downloads the sample and starts its server., The bootstrap binds a tunnel, starts its agent, and registers the sample app. - **Evidence against:** The downloaded sample is described as a demo app, and each downloaded file is checked against a SHA-256 manifest., The sample behavior has a \`livewareSample\` configuration switch, and the source documents how to disable it., The Clawling plugin also exposes APIs for registering Liveware apps, so this feature is related to its integration. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @clawling/clawchat-plugin-openclaw@2026.10.9-2. - Review the evidence and your use of @clawling/clawchat-plugin-openclaw@2026.10.9-2 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
