Permission Footprint Reviewer

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a local permission-review helper that processes user-provided files and writes optional reports, with no evidence of network access, persistence, credential use, or hidden system changes.

Safe to install for local permission-review workflows. Treat any files you provide as input to a local analyzer, prefer redacted inputs for sensitive material, and choose output paths deliberately because the helper can write a report file when asked.

MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding
The skill advertises and documents execution via `python3` and references reading local resources and writing output, but it does not declare corresponding permissions. This creates a transparency and policy-enforcement gap: a reviewer or runtime may assume the skill is lower risk than it really is, enabling unexpected file access or shell execution in environments that rely on declared permissions.

Tp4

High
Category
MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
85% confidence
Finding
The documented purpose is narrow—permission-footprint review—but the described/observed behavior indicates broader scanning and report-generation capabilities across files and directories, including regex-based content inspection. That mismatch is dangerous because it can justify broader access than users expect, increase data exposure during analysis, and conceal a general-purpose scanner behind a specialized security label.
