Security audit

Airpoint 1.3.16

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is openly a Mac desktop-control assistant, but it gives broad screen-reading and click/type authority without enough user-facing boundaries for sensitive actions.

Install only if you are comfortable granting Airpoint broad ability to view your screen and control your Mac. Avoid exposing passwords, private messages, financial data, or admin prompts while using it, and supervise tasks closely, especially when using `--no-wait` or asking it to interact with email, chat, browser sessions, or system settings.

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
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Missing User Warnings

High
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding
The documentation describes an agent with screen-reading, keyboard/mouse control, screenshot capture, and autonomous workflow execution, but omits an explicit warning about the privacy and system-impact risks of granting those capabilities. Because the skill can observe sensitive on-screen content and manipulate any accessible application, users may underestimate the danger and authorize actions affecting credentials, personal data, communications, or system configuration.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The skill advertises unconstrained natural-language control of a Mac, including opening apps, reading the screen, typing, and performing multi-step autonomous actions, without defining narrow trigger boundaries or safety gating. In practice, this enables highly privileged, user-facing automation that could be invoked for sensitive actions across arbitrary applications, increasing the risk of privacy violations, destructive system changes, or unintended exfiltration if the skill is used loosely or prompted unsafely.
