nzbget

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 12, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: nzbget Version: 1.0.1 The skill bundle is designed to check NZBGet download status and queue information. It uses environment variables (NZBGET_USER, NZBGET_PASS, NZBGET_HOST) to authenticate and connect to a user-defined NZBGet instance via its JSON-RPC API using `curl`. The `SKILL.md` provides clear instructions for the agent without any prompt injection attempts. The `scripts/check_nzbget.sh` script uses standard tools (`curl`, `jq`, `bc`) to retrieve and parse status information, and there is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, or other harmful behaviors beyond its stated purpose.

Findings (0)

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

The skill can read and display NZBGet status and queue names using your NZBGet credentials; if the configured host is not trusted or protected, those credentials could be exposed.

Why it was flagged

The script requires NZBGet host, username, and password environment variables and embeds them into the JSON-RPC URL. This is purpose-aligned for checking NZBGet, but it is credentialed account access.

Skill content
HOST="${NZBGET_HOST:-}" ... PASS="${NZBGET_PASS:-}" ... URL="http://${USER}:${PASS}@${HOST}/jsonrpc"
Recommendation

Use credentials only for a trusted NZBGet instance, prefer localhost or a protected HTTPS/reverse-proxy setup for remote access, and avoid sharing broad NZBGet credentials unnecessarily.

What this means

The skill may fail unless tools such as bash, curl, jq, and bc are available, and users may not notice the credential requirement from metadata alone.

Why it was flagged

The registry metadata provides limited provenance and does not declare the environment variables or command-line tools that the included script uses. This is an incomplete setup/capability declaration rather than evidence of hidden malicious behavior.

Skill content
Source: unknown; Homepage: none; Required binaries (all must exist): none; Env var declarations: none; No install spec — this is an instruction-only skill.
Recommendation

Review the included script before use, ensure the needed local tools are installed, and update metadata to declare the NZBGET_USER, NZBGET_PASS, NZBGET_HOST variables and command dependencies.
