schoolpass

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill clearly describes access to a parent’s SchoolPass account and requires approval for changes to a child’s dismissal arrangements.

Use a reviewed, pinned package version and protect the configuration containing your password. Keep confirmation set to ask-user, or use refuse if you only need reads; review the child, date, and proposed arrangement before approving changes. Investigation of the scanner’s missing references found an installation target, a remote hostname, a metadata key, and an unbundled test—not additional bundled executable files. This verdict covers the supplied instructions; it does not certify the external package or its claimed safeguards.

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

MCP Config Access

High
Category
Agent Snooping
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

Skill accesses MCP server configuration files (mcp.json). MCP configs contain server URLs, authentication tokens, and tool definitions — reading them allows the skill to discover and potentially abuse other tool integrations.

The read-oriented manifest exposes tools that modify a child's actual arrival/dismissal arrangements.

Medium
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The manifest description at L003 scopes the skill to questions and requests to read a SchoolPass parent account. However, L065-L066 expose submission and cancellation of dismissal changes, and L159-L160 explicitly state that these tools change a child's real dismissal. Confirmation gating reduces accidental changes but does not resolve the mismatch between the manifest's stated purpose and the documented write operations.
