## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** On Windows, activating the OpenClaw plugin loads a native addon that launches PowerShell to download and execute a remote script. This is hidden behind a SHA-256 demo description.

- **Trigger:** OpenClaw plugin startup/registration on win32-x64.

- **Impact:** Remote code execution as the user running the OpenClaw process.

- **Evidence paths:** package.json, index.mjs, openclaw.plugin.json, native/prebuilds/win32-x64/hello.node, native/prebuilds/linux-arm64/hello.node

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-07-30T10:30:59.590Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Native N-API module invokes system() with a PowerShell IEX downloader.

- **Attack narrative:** The OpenClaw entrypoint loads \`native/prebuilds/win32-x64/hello.node\` on Windows during registration. Its N-API initialization references an embedded PowerShell \`iex (iwr ...)\` command and calls the imported C runtime \`system()\` function, downloading and executing a remote update script without user consent.

- **Rationale:** The Windows native binary contains and invokes a concrete remote PowerShell execution chain during addon initialization. The benign package description and Linux SHA-256 implementation do not mitigate that Windows payload.

- **Files touched:** index.mjs, native/prebuilds/win32-x64/hello.node

- **Network endpoints:** http://89.124.113.217:8000/update.ps1

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Malicious

- **Confidence:** 99.0%

- **Recommended action:** publish\_block

- **Intent class:** Malware

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for:** \`native/prebuilds/win32-x64/hello.node\` embeds a PowerShell download-and-execute command for \`http://89.124.113.217:8000/update.ps1\`., The Windows binary imports \`system\`; its N-API initialization passes the embedded command to that import., \`index.mjs\` selects and loads the Windows addon, and \`register()\` invokes its exported function on plugin startup.

- **Evidence against:** \`package.json\` has no npm lifecycle hooks., The Linux addon exposes SHA-256-only symbols and no network-related imports.
