Clip

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill does what it says: it downloads a YouTube video, clips the requested range, and saves it locally, with a minor temporary-file safety weakness to be aware of.

Install only if you are comfortable with the skill downloading media from supplied URLs and writing clips to ~/Desktop/Clips. Use unique clip names to avoid overwriting outputs, and avoid running it in a hostile shared-machine environment because its temporary work directory is predictable.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • 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

Finding

This markdown file describes file-creating and file-deletion behavior, but presents it as ordinary operation without an explicit caution or warning to the user about modifying local files. Under the markdown-specific warning rule, behaviors affecting user data or system state should be clearly disclosed as warnings, especially the cleanup deletion step.
