Security audit

CORS Scanner

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The available evidence points to a security scanning skill with one notable reliability issue, not hidden or malicious behavior.

Before installing, check whether HTTPS certificate verification is disabled by default. If so, use the skill only against targets you control and treat scan results as potentially unreliable unless the tool verifies TLS normally or requires an explicit insecure-mode flag.

Finding
The scanner disables TLS certificate validation by setting `check_hostname = False` and `verify_mode = ssl.CERT_NONE` for all HTTPS requests. This makes scan results untrustworthy and allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to intercept or alter responses, potentially causing false negatives/positives or exposing scanned request metadata; in a security tool, that materially undermines the integrity of the assessment.
