Security audit

YouTube Analytics

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill coherently documents a YouTube Analytics integration through Maton, with sensitive actions disclosed and gated on user approval.

Before installing, understand that this skill can access YouTube Analytics data for connected accounts and can modify analytics groups if you approve write operations. Use the pinned CLI, prefer OAuth over API keys, confirm any connection, write, hosted function, trigger, or destination separately, and avoid third-party forwarding unless you explicitly trust the destination and understand what data will be sent.

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
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
