Hudson Rock detected a Vidar infostealer variant exfiltrating OpenClaw configuration files — gateway auth tokens and device key pairs — enabling full agent impersonation. This is not theoretical: stolen credentials allow remote connection to exposed instances, client impersonation, and bypass of Safe Device verification. CTO Alon Gal called it "a significant milestone: the transition from stealing browser credentials to harvesting the 'souls' and identities of personal AI agents." What to do: Rotate your OpenClaw tokens now. Move sensitive configs out of default paths. Expect dedicated infostealer modules for agent platforms within months.
