Remote Claw

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is mostly transparent about using an external human-task service, but it explicitly supports CAPTCHA solving, which can bypass anti-abuse controls.

Only install this if you are comfortable sending task details to a public third-party job board and can enforce your own policy limits. Do not use it for CAPTCHAs, access gates, account creation, scraping workflows, or any task that bypasses a site's anti-abuse controls; avoid posting secrets, credentials, private documents, or unnecessary personal data.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Finding

The skill explicitly advertises CAPTCHA solving by routing challenges to humans, which directly enables circumvention of anti-bot and abuse-prevention controls. Even though presented as a legitimate use case, this capability can be used to automate access, account creation, scraping, or other actions that services intentionally protect with human verification.

Finding

A dedicated CAPTCHA task type operationalizes anti-bot circumvention by defining a structured workflow for obtaining human solutions to verification challenges. This makes the misuse easier and more scalable than a vague mention because it normalizes and standardizes bypass of security controls as a first-class feature.
