Your OpenClaw is Running Unverified Code
9,000+ installations compromised. 36% of ClawHub skills contain prompt injection vulnerabilities. HexaClaw gives you hardened configs, curated skill packs, and Guardian runtime security -- tested against real ClawHub attack patterns with 42 confirmed blocks and zero false positives.
Built on Cisco AI Defense. Backed by research from Snyk, Koi Security, and VirusTotal.
The OpenClaw Security Crisis
The ClawHavoc attack exposed critical vulnerabilities in the OpenClaw ecosystem. Thousands of users are running unverified, potentially malicious code.
What You Get
Everything you need to lock down your OpenClaw installation, packaged for one-command deployment.
Hardened hexaclaw.json
Locked-down config with skill allowlisting, sandboxed tool categories, and sensible security defaults.
Scanner-Verified Skill Bundles
Productivity, Developer, and Content packs -- 10 skills scanned with HexaClaw Verify before inclusion. Every skill passes YARA rules and heuristic analysis.
One-Click Installer
Auto-detects your OS, backs up existing config, and sets up everything with a single command.
3 Security Profiles
Balanced, Minimal (maximum lockdown), and Developer -- choose the level that fits your workflow.
Guardian Runtime Security
119 security rules across 12 attack categories. Tested against 6 real-world ClawHub attack patterns with 42 confirmed blocks and zero false positives. Sub-5ms overhead.
HexaClaw Verify Scanner
Scan any skill with YARA rules, prompt injection detection, and heuristic analysis. Built on Cisco AI Defense.
Guardian Runtime Security
Static scanning catches known threats. Guardian blocks unknown threats in real-time -- intercepting credential theft, data exfiltration, and persistence attacks before they execute. Tested against real ClawHub attack patterns in an isolated VM.
Real-World Attacks Tested in Isolated VM
| Attack Pattern | Source | Without Guardian | With Guardian |
|---|---|---|---|
| SSH key injection + exfiltration | ClawHub evilweather | Keys stolen | BLOCKED (9) |
| Credential bundling + webhook exfil | ClawHub rankaj | Creds leaked | BLOCKED (6) |
| SOUL.md cognitive rootkit | VirusTotal analysis | Agent hijacked | BLOCKED (3) |
| HEARTBEAT.md C2 injection | VirusTotal analysis | Backdoor installed | BLOCKED (6) |
| MCP tool description poisoning | Invariant Labs | Keys exfiltrated | BLOCKED (12) |
| MCP config injection (RCE) | CVE-2025-54135 | Code executed | BLOCKED (6) |
Defense in depth: even when a model refuses 95% of attacks, Guardian catches the 5% that slip through. Tested against Claude Opus 4, Gemini 2.0 Flash, and Gemini 2.0 Flash Lite in live E2E and isolated VM environments.
6 Attack Vectors. All Blocked.
HexaClaw protects against every known attack vector in the skill ecosystem, including CVE-2026-25253 (CVSS 8.8) and CVE-2025-54135 MCP config injection.
Malicious Install Hooks
Skills that run arbitrary shell commands during installation, compromising your system before you even use them.
Credential Harvesting
Skills designed to extract API keys, SSH keys, wallet keys, and other secrets from your environment.
Prompt Injection
Hidden instructions in skill definitions that hijack the AI agent to perform unintended actions.
Data Exfiltration
Skills that silently send your data to attacker-controlled servers through covert network requests.
Typosquatting
Fake skills that mimic popular ones with slightly different names to trick users into installing them.
Dependency Hijacking
Malicious code hidden in the dependencies of otherwise legitimate-looking skills.
Catches What VirusTotal Can't
OpenClaw integrated VirusTotal to scan ClawHub uploads. It catches malware signatures in binaries. But prompt injection -- the #1 attack vector -- lives in SKILL.md text files, not binaries.
VirusTotal
- Scans for malware signatures in binaries
- Catches known malware families
- Cannot catch prompt injection payloads
- No behavioral analysis
- No runtime protection
- No config hardening
OpenClaw maintainers confirmed VirusTotal "cannot catch prompt injection payloads."
HexaClaw
- Custom YARA rules for prompt injection
- Heuristic behavioral analysis
- Guardian runtime security (119 rules)
- Hardened config profiles
- Pre-verified skill bundles
- Real-time threat blocking (sub-5ms)
Built on Cisco AI Defense. 42 confirmed blocks against real ClawHub attack patterns. Zero false positives.
36% of ClawHub skills contain prompt injection vulnerabilities that VirusTotal explicitly cannot detect. This is the #1 attack vector in the OpenClaw ecosystem.

Trusted by Developers Who Take Security Seriously
Engineers at top companies use HexaClaw to lock down their AI tooling without sacrificing productivity.
Found 3 skills in my setup that were silently exfiltrating my shell history. HexaClaw caught them in seconds — I wouldn't have known otherwise.
Replaced 2 hours of manually auditing skill configs with a single curl command. The hardened config blocked prompt injection attempts on day one.
We rolled HexaClaw out to our entire 40-person eng team. Setup took 4 minutes per machine. Zero broken workflows, 6 attack vectors closed.
The curated skill packs alone are worth it. Every skill pre-verified, no install hooks, no credential harvesting. I actually trust my setup now.
