@clawos-dev/clawd@0.2.566
Standalone clawd daemon — Claude Code (and future Codex) session server over WebSocket
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe active CLI path forwards an existing login credential to a destination that is configurable without an allowlist. This is a dangerous credential-forwarding capability, but the trigger is explicit user execution and there is no concrete malicious install hook.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review
Trigger
The user runs the clawd CLI with a configured clawos API value and a stored login pass is used.
Impact
A mistaken or hostile API configuration can receive the existing service credential.
Mechanism
The API base is accepted from a flag, environment variable, or config file; request code appends a path and places the stored login pass in an Authorization header.
AI rationale
The active CLI path forwards an existing login credential to a destination that is configurable without an allowlist. This is a dangerous credential-forwarding capability, but the trigger is explicit user execution and there is no concrete malicious install hook.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 93.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The package exposes dist/cli.cjs as its executable and starts its daemon when that CLI is run.
- The CLI accepts a clawos API URL from a command-line flag, environment variable, or config file without destination validation.
- The daemon reads a stored login pass and sends it as a Bearer token to URLs built from that configurable API base.
Evidence against
- package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall lifecycle hook.
- The credential forwarding occurs after an explicit CLI invocation, not at package installation or import.
