OpenClaw has added VirusTotal's malware scanning to its ClawHub marketplace after finding 341 malicious skills in its platform. This integration scans all published skills for known malware, but experts warn it won't catch all threats, particularly those using prompt injection techniques.

OpenClaw, a popular AI agent, has been linked to security issues due to malware found in numerous user-created add-ons on its ClawHub marketplace. Security researchers identified hundreds of malicious skills that trick users into downloading harmful software that can steal sensitive information. The platform's creator is implementing measures to mitigate these risks, but vulnerabilities remain.
