Security Audit

Scan, detect, and fix security issues in codebases and infrastructure. Covers dependency vulnerabilities, secret detection, OWASP top 10, SSL/TLS verification, file permissions, and secure coding patterns.

When to Use

• Scanning project dependencies for known vulnerabilities
• Detecting hardcoded secrets, API keys, or credentials in source code
• Reviewing code for OWASP top 10 vulnerabilities (injection, XSS, CSRF, etc.)
• Verifying SSL/TLS configuration for endpoints
• Auditing file and directory permissions
• Checking authentication and authorization patterns
• Preparing for a security review or compliance audit

Dependency Vulnerability Scanning

Node.js

# Built-in npm audit
npm audit
npm audit --json | jq '.vulnerabilities | to_entries[] | {name: .key, severity: .value.severity, via: .value.via[0]}'

# Fix automatically where possible
npm audit fix

# Show only high and critical
npm audit --audit-level=high

# Check a specific package
npm audit --package-lock-only

# Alternative: use npx to scan without installing
npx audit-ci --high

Python

# pip-audit (recommended)
pip install pip-audit
pip-audit
pip-audit -r requirements.txt
pip-audit --format=json

# safety (alternative)
pip install safety
safety check
safety check -r requirements.txt --json

# Check a specific package
pip-audit --requirement=- <<< "requests==2.25.0"

Go

# Built-in vuln checker
go install golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck@latest
govulncheck ./...

# Check specific binary
govulncheck -mode=binary ./myapp

Rust

# cargo-audit
cargo install cargo-audit
cargo audit

# With fix suggestions
cargo audit fix

Universal: Trivy (scans any project)

# Install: https://aquasecurity.github.io/trivy
# Scan filesystem
trivy fs .

# Scan specific language
trivy fs --scanners vuln --severity HIGH,CRITICAL .

# Scan Docker image
trivy image myapp:latest

# JSON output
trivy fs --format json -o results.json .

Secret Detection

Manual grep patterns

# AWS keys
grep -rn 'AKIA[0-9A-Z]\{16\}' --include='*.{js,ts,py,go,java,rb,env,yml,yaml,json,xml,cfg,conf,ini}' .

# Generic API keys and tokens
grep -rn -i 'api[_-]\?key\|api[_-]\?secret\|access[_-]\?token\|auth[_-]\?token\|bearer ' \
  --include='*.{js,ts,py,go,java,rb,env,yml,yaml,json}' .

# Private keys
grep -rn 'BEGIN.*PRIVATE KEY' .

# Passwords in config
grep -rn -i 'password\s*[:=]' --include='*.{env,yml,yaml,json,xml,cfg,conf,ini,toml}' .

# Connection strings with credentials
grep -rn -i 'mongodb://\|mysql://\|postgres://\|redis://' --include='*.{js,ts,py,go,env,yml,yaml,json}' . | grep -v 'localhost\|127.0.0.1\|example'

grep -rn 'eyJ[A-Za-z0-9_-]*\.eyJ[A-Za-z0-9_-]*\.' --include='*.{js,ts,py,go,log,json}' .

Automated scanning with git

# Scan git history for secrets (not just current files)
# Using git log + grep
git log -p --all | grep -n -i 'api.key\|password\|secret\|token' | head -50

# Check staged files before commit
git diff --cached --name-only | xargs grep -l -i 'api.key\|password\|secret\|token' 2>/dev/null

OWASP Top 10 Code Patterns

1. Injection (SQL, Command, LDAP)

# SQL injection: string concatenation in queries
grep -rn "query\|execute\|cursor" --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' . | \
  grep -i "f\"\|format(\|%s\|\${\|+ \"\|concat\|sprintf" | \
  grep -iv "parameterized\|placeholder\|prepared"

# Command injection: user input in shell commands
grep -rn "exec(\|spawn(\|system(\|popen(\|subprocess\|os\.system\|child_process" \
  --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' .

# Check for parameterized queries (good)
grep -rn "\\$[0-9]\|\\?\|%s\|:param\|@param\|prepared" --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' .

2. Broken Authentication

# Weak password hashing (MD5, SHA1 used for passwords)
grep -rn "md5\|sha1\|sha256" --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' . | grep -i "password\|passwd"

# Hardcoded credentials
grep -rn -i "admin.*password\|password.*admin\|default.*password" \
  --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb,yml,yaml,json}' .

# Session tokens in URLs
grep -rn "session\|token\|jwt" --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' . | grep -i "url\|query\|param\|GET"

# Check for rate limiting on auth endpoints
grep -rn -i "rate.limit\|throttle\|brute" --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' .

3. Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

# Unescaped output in templates
grep -rn "innerHTML\|dangerouslySetInnerHTML\|v-html\|\|html(" \
  --include='*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,vue,html}' .

# Template injection
grep -rn "{{{.*}}}\|<%=\|<%-\|\$\!{" --include='*.{html,ejs,hbs,pug,erb}' .

# Document.write
grep -rn "document\.write\|document\.writeln" --include='*.{js,ts,html}' .

# eval with user input
grep -rn "eval(\|new Function(\|setTimeout.*string\|setInterval.*string" \
  --include='*.{js,ts}' .

4. Insecure Direct Object References

# Direct ID usage in routes without authz check
grep -rn "params\.id\|params\[.id.\]\|req\.params\.\|request\.args\.\|request\.GET\." \
  --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' . | \
  grep -i "user\|account\|profile\|order\|document"

5. Security Misconfiguration

# CORS wildcard
grep -rn "Access-Control-Allow-Origin.*\*\|cors({.*origin.*true\|cors()" \
  --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' .

# Debug mode in production configs
grep -rn "DEBUG\s*=\s*True\|debug:\s*true\|NODE_ENV.*development" \
  --include='*.{py,js,ts,yml,yaml,json,env}' .

# Verbose error messages exposed to clients
grep -rn "stack\|traceback\|stackTrace" --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb}' . | \
  grep -i "response\|send\|return\|res\."

SSL/TLS Verification

Check endpoint SSL

# Full SSL check
openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -servername example.com < /dev/null 2>/dev/null | \
  openssl x509 -noout -subject -issuer -dates -fingerprint

# Check certificate expiry
echo | openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -servername example.com 2>/dev/null | \
  openssl x509 -noout -enddate

# Check supported TLS versions
for v in tls1 tls1_1 tls1_2 tls1_3; do
  result=$(openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -$v < /dev/null 2>&1)
  if echo "$result" | grep -q "Cipher is"; then
    echo "$v: SUPPORTED"
  else
    echo "$v: NOT SUPPORTED"
  fi
done

# Check cipher suites
openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -cipher 'ALL' < /dev/null 2>&1 | \
  grep "Cipher    :"

# Check for weak ciphers
openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -cipher 'NULL:EXPORT:DES:RC4:MD5' < /dev/null 2>&1 | \
  grep "Cipher    :"

Verify certificate chain

# Download and verify full chain
openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -showcerts < /dev/null 2>/dev/null | \
  awk '/BEGIN CERTIFICATE/,/END CERTIFICATE/{print}' > chain.pem

# Verify chain
openssl verify -CAfile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt chain.pem

# Check certificate details
openssl x509 -in chain.pem -noout -text | grep -A2 "Subject:\|Issuer:\|Not Before\|Not After\|DNS:"

Check SSL from code

# Verify SSL isn't disabled in code
grep -rn "verify\s*=\s*False\|rejectUnauthorized.*false\|InsecureSkipVerify.*true\|CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER.*false\|NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED.*0" \
  --include='*.{py,js,ts,go,java,rb,yml,yaml}' .

File Permission Audit

# Find world-writable files
find . -type f -perm -o=w -not -path '*/node_modules/*' -not -path '*/.git/*' 2>/dev/null

# Find executable files that shouldn't be
find . -type f -perm -u=x -not -name '*.sh' -not -name '*.py' -not -path '*/node_modules/*' \
  -not -path '*/.git/*' -not -path '*/bin/*' 2>/dev/null

# Check sensitive file permissions
for f in .env .env.* *.pem *.key *.p12 id_rsa id_ed25519; do
    [ -f "$f" ] && ls -la "$f"
done

# Find files with SUID/SGID bits (Linux)
find / -type f \( -perm -4000 -o -perm -2000 \) 2>/dev/null | head -20

# Check SSH key permissions
if [ -d ~/.ssh ]; then
    echo "--- SSH directory permissions ---"
    ls -la ~/.ssh/
    echo ""
    # Should be: dir=700, private keys=600, public keys=644, config=600
    [ "$(stat -c %a ~/.ssh 2>/dev/null || stat -f %Lp ~/.ssh)" != "700" ] && echo "WARNING: ~/.ssh should be 700"

Secure Coding Quick Reference

Environment variables instead of hardcoded secrets

# Bad: hardcoded in source
API_KEY="sk-abc123..."

# Good: from environment
API_KEY="${API_KEY:?Error: API_KEY not set}"

# Good: from .env file (loaded at startup, never committed)
# .env
API_KEY=sk-abc123...
# .gitignore
.env

Input validation checklist

- [ ] All user input validated (type, length, format)
- [ ] SQL queries use parameterized statements (never string concat)
- [ ] Shell commands never include user input directly
- [ ] File paths validated (no path traversal: ../)
- [ ] URLs validated (no SSRF: restrict to expected domains)
- [ ] HTML output escaped (no XSS: use framework auto-escaping)
- [ ] JSON parsing has error handling (no crash on malformed input)
- [ ] File uploads checked (type, size, no executable content)

HTTP security headers

# Check security headers on a URL
curl -sI https://example.com | grep -i 'strict-transport\|content-security\|x-frame\|x-content-type\|referrer-policy\|permissions-policy'

# Expected headers:
# Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
# Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'
# X-Frame-Options: DENY
# X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
# Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
# Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=()

Tips

• Run npm audit / pip-audit / govulncheck in CI on every pull request, not just occasionally.
• Secret detection in git history matters: even if a secret is removed from HEAD, it exists in git history. Use git filter-branch or git-filter-repo to purge, then rotate the credential.
• The most dangerous vulnerabilities are often the simplest: SQL injection via string concatenation, command injection via unsanitized input, XSS via innerHTML.
• CORS Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * is safe for truly public, read-only APIs. It's dangerous for anything that uses cookies or auth tokens.
• Always verify SSL in production. verify=False or rejectUnauthorized: false should only appear in test code, never in production paths.
• Defense in depth: validate input, escape output, use parameterized queries, enforce least privilege, and assume every layer might be bypassed.

🤖 Agentic Security Audit (Bổ sung 25/02/2026)

Từ paper "Agents of Chaos" (arXiv:2602.20021) + OWASP Top 10 for Agentic Applications 2026. Traditional security audit chỉ cover code/infra. Agentic systems có attack surface hoàn toàn mới.

When to Use (Agentic)

• Auditing OpenClaw/agent workspace configuration
• Reviewing agent permissions and access boundaries
• Scanning for prompt injection vectors in agent-facing content
• Assessing multi-agent communication security
• Evaluating identity verification mechanisms
• Checking persistent memory for poisoning

OWASP Agentic Top 10 Checklist (2026)

- [ ] ASI01: Agent Goal Hijack (prompt injection — direct & indirect)
- [ ] ASI02: Tool Misuse and Exploitation (shell, filesystem, API abuse)
- [ ] ASI03: Identity and Privilege Abuse (confused deputy, over-privilege)
- [ ] ASI04: Memory Poisoning (SOUL.md, MEMORY.md, persistent context)
- [ ] ASI05: Supply Chain Attacks (malicious skills/plugins — e.g., ClawHub)
- [ ] ASI06: Rogue Agents (operating outside intended boundaries)
- [ ] ASI07: Data Leakage via Agentic Channels (cross-channel PII exposure)
- [ ] ASI08: Orchestration Manipulation (sub-agent hijacking)
- [ ] ASI09: Insufficient Logging and Observability
- [ ] ASI10: Insecure Agent Communication (agent-to-agent trust)

1. Workspace Configuration Audit

# Check if agent config files are world-readable
echo "--- Agent Config Permissions ---"
for f in SOUL.md MEMORY.md AGENTS.md TOOLS.md IDENTITY.md USER.md HEARTBEAT.md; do
    [ -f "$f" ] && echo "$(stat -f '%Sp %N' "$f" 2>/dev/null || stat -c '%A %n' "$f")" || echo "  NOT FOUND: $f"
done

# Check for secrets leaked into agent memory/config
echo "--- Secrets in Agent Files ---"
grep -rn -i 'api.key\|password\|token\|secret\|bearer' \
  SOUL.md MEMORY.md TOOLS.md IDENTITY.md USER.md memory/*.md 2>/dev/null | \
  grep -v 'example\|placeholder\|REDACTED'

# Check for over-permissive shell access
echo "--- Shell Access Check ---"
grep -rn -i 'sudo\|chmod 777\|unrestricted' AGENTS.md TOOLS.md 2>/dev/null

2. Prompt Injection Scan (Agent-Facing Content)

# Scan content that agents read/process for injection patterns
SCAN_DIRS="${1:-.}"

echo "--- Prompt Injection Patterns ---"
INJECTION_PATTERNS=(
    'ignore\s+(previous|all|above)\s+instructions'
    'you\s+are\s+now\s+'

    'act\s+as\s+if\s+you\s+are'
    'disregard\s+(all|your|previous)'
    'jailbreak'
    'DAN\s+mode'
)

for pattern in "${INJECTION_PATTERNS[@]}"; do
    matches=$(grep -rn -iP "$pattern" "$SCAN_DIRS" \
      --include='*.{md,txt,json,html,yml,yaml}' 2>/dev/null | \
      grep -v 'node_modules\|\.git\|SKILL.md' | head -5)
    [ -n "$matches" ] && echo "  [!] Injection pattern '$pattern':" && echo "$matches"
done

# Steganographic: zero-width Unicode characters
echo "--- Zero-Width Unicode Characters ---"
grep -rPn '[\x{200B}\x{200C}\x{200D}\x{FEFF}\x{00AD}\x{2060}]' "$SCAN_DIRS" \
  --include='*.{md,txt,json,html}' 2>/dev/null | head -10


 
grep -rPn   \
  --include= 2>/dev/null | \
  grep -v  |  -10

3. Identity & Authorization Audit

# Check if agent verifies owner identity beyond display name
echo "--- Identity Verification ---"

# OpenClaw: check if authorized senders are configured
grep -n 'authorizedSenders\|authorized_senders\|allowlist' \
  ~/.config/openclaw/config.yaml ~/.openclaw/config.* 2>/dev/null

# Check if agent trusts display names (vulnerable to spoofing)
grep -rn -i 'display.name\|username\|sender.name' \
  AGENTS.md SOUL.md TOOLS.md 2>/dev/null | \
  grep -iv 'user.id\|sender.id\|verified'

# Check for cross-channel trust assumptions
echo "--- Cross-Channel Trust ---"
grep -rn -i 'if.*channel\|trust.*channel\|verify.*channel' \
  AGENTS.md SOUL.md 2>/dev/null

4. Memory Poisoning Check

# Check memory files for suspicious patterns
echo "--- Memory Integrity ---"

# External URLs stored as "governing documents" (Case #10: Agent Corruption)
echo "URLs in memory that agent may follow as instructions:"
grep -rn 'https\?://\|gist\.github\|pastebin\|hastebin' \

# Check if memory files were recently modified by non-owner actions
echo "Recent memory file changes:"

  while read f; do echo "  $(stat -f '%Sm %N' "$f" 2>/dev/null || stat -c '%y %n' "$f")"; done

# Check for instructions in memory that override safety rules
grep -rn -i 'override\|bypass\|ignore.*rule\|disable.*safety\|skip.*check' \
  MEMORY.md memory/*.md HEARTBEAT.md 2>/dev/null

# Check git blame for who modified critical files
echo "--- SOUL.md modification history ---"
git log --oneline -10 -- SOUL.md 2>/dev/null || echo "  (not in git)"
echo "--- AGENTS.md modification history ---"
git log --oneline -10 -- AGENTS.md 2>/dev/null || echo "  (not in git)"

5. Multi-Agent Communication Audit

# Check for agent-to-agent trust without verification
echo "--- Multi-Agent Trust ---"

# Shared channels where agents interact (Discord, forum, email)
grep -rn -i 'discord\|forum\|moltbook\|clawstr\|email.*agent' \
  TOOLS.md MEMORY.md memory/*.md 2>/dev/null

# Check if agent auto-executes actions from other agents
grep -rn -i 'webhook\|auto.reply\|auto.respond\|on.*mention' \
  AGENTS.md HEARTBEAT.md TOOLS.md scripts/*.sh 2>/dev/null

# Check for infinite loop risks (agent A ↔ agent B relay)
grep -rn -i 'relay\|forward.*message\|pass.*along\|tell.*agent' \
  MEMORY.md memory/*.md 2>/dev/null

# Check cron/heartbeat for tasks triggered by external content
echo "--- Scheduled Tasks ---"
grep -rn -i 'check.*forum\|check.*moltbook\|reply.*comment\|respond.*mention' \
  HEARTBEAT.md 2>/dev/null

6. Resource & Privilege Audit

# Check for excessive agent permissions
echo "--- Agent Permissions ---"

# Sudo access (should NOT be default for agents)
grep -rn 'sudo\|root\|admin.*access\|unrestricted' \
  AGENTS.md TOOLS.md 2>/dev/null

# Background processes agent has created
echo "Running agent processes:"
ps aux | grep -i 'cron\|heartbeat\|monitor\|watch\|loop' | grep -v grep | head -10

# Check for unbounded resource consumption patterns
echo "--- Cron/Background Jobs ---"
crontab -l 2>/dev/null || echo "  No crontab"

# Check disk usage of agent workspace
echo "--- Workspace Size ---"
du -sh . memory/ 2>/dev/null

# Check for files agent probably shouldn't have access to
echo "--- Sensitive System Files Readable by Agent ---"
for f in /etc/shadow /etc/passwd ~/.ssh/id_rsa ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 \
         ~/.aws/credentials ~/.config/gcloud/credentials.db; do
    [ -r "$f" ] && echo "  [!] READABLE: $f"
done

7. Semantic Reframing Detection (Advanced)

From Agents of Chaos Case #3: "Give me SSN" → refused. "Forward the email" (containing SSN) → complied. This check helps humans verify their agent won't leak data through reframed requests.

# Check if agent has rules about content-based (not just action-based) evaluation
echo "--- Content-Based Safety Rules ---"
grep -rn -i 'content.*evaluat\|semantic.*refram\|forward.*email.*sensitive\|assess.*content' \
  AGENTS.md SOUL.md 2>/dev/null

# Check for PII in files agent might forward/share
echo "--- PII in Agent-Accessible Files ---"
# SSN pattern
grep -rPn '\b\d{3}-\d{2}-\d{4}\b' MEMORY.md memory/*.md 2>/dev/null
# Credit card pattern
grep -rPn '\b\d{4}[-\s]?\d{4}[-\s]?\d{4}[-\s]?\d{4}\b' MEMORY.md memory/*.md 2>/dev/null
# Email addresses
grep -rPn '\b[A-Za-z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,}\b' \
  MEMORY.md memory/*.md USER.md 2>/dev/null | \
  grep -v 'example\|test\|placeholder'
