Gate News Report, March 15 — The China Internet Finance Association issued a risk alert regarding the security of OpenClaw applications. The association pointed out that while the OpenClaw AI can improve work efficiency, its default high system permissions and weak security configurations are easily exploited by attackers, becoming a breach point for stealing sensitive data or illegally controlling transactions, posing serious risks to the industry.\n\nThe China Internet Finance Association advises financial consumers to exercise extreme caution when installing OpenClaw on devices used for online banking, securities trading, payments, and other personal financial activities. If installation is necessary, the following measures are recommended: do not grant system operation permissions related to financial services; promptly apply OpenClaw vulnerability patches; strictly control the installation of functional plugins; avoid entering sensitive information such as ID numbers, bank card numbers, or payment passwords when not in use. Additionally, the association warns that such applications continuously calling large model interfaces during operation may incur high Token costs, and users should monitor this closely.
