OpenClaw AI Agent is Vulnerable to Phishing Attacks

Open-source AI framework, OpenClaw, is highly vulnerable to classic phishing attacks. Tested using Google Gemini 3.1 Pro and OpenAI GPT-5.4, the agent successfully detected malicious links and OAuth apps. However, it failed to verify sender identities under urgent pretexts, mistakenly leaking sensitive corporate data like AWS keys and CRM records. Security experts recommend enforcing strict identity verification and human approval for high-risk actions.
