Security audit

Web Automation Helper

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is not malicious, but it asks users to enable powerful Chrome remote debugging for browser automation without enough safety limits for logged-in sessions.

Install only if you understand that Chrome remote debugging gives strong control over that browser while it is running. Use a separate Chrome profile or test account, keep the debug port local, supervise any form submission or posting, do not share the WebSocket URL printed by the helper, and close the remote-debugging browser when finished.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill advertises browser automation including form filling and content publishing, but it does not warn users that these actions can alter accounts, submit data, or trigger external side effects. This increases the risk of unintended actions against user data or third-party systems, especially because Chrome remote debugging can drive a live authenticated browser session.
