Uuid Generator Tool

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 13, 2026.

Overview

This appears to be a simple local UUID utility with no network, install, or credential use, with only a privacy caveat for UUID v1 outputs.

This looks safe for normal local UUID generation. Prefer UUID v4 for public or privacy-sensitive identifiers because UUID v1 can include a machine identifier and timestamp, and do not provide credentials for this tool.

Findings (2)

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

#ASI03: Identity and Privilege Abuse

What this means

If a user shares UUID v1 values publicly, they may disclose a machine identifier and generation time.

Why it was flagged

UUID v1 generation can embed a timestamp and node identifier such as a MAC address; this is inherent to UUID v1 and is also disclosed in the skill documentation.

Skill content

def generate_uuid_v1():
    """Generate UUID v1 (time-based)"""
    return str(uuid.uuid1())

Recommendation

Use UUID v4 for general-purpose or privacy-sensitive identifiers unless UUID v1 is specifically needed.

Info

#ASI03: Identity and Privilege Abuse

What this means

A user could be confused if prompted for credentials, but the provided artifacts do not show any reason this tool needs them.

Why it was flagged

A supplied capability signal mentions sensitive credentials, but the declared requirements and reviewed code do not show any credential need or handling.

Skill content

Capability signals: - requires-sensitive-credentials; Required env vars: none; Primary credential: none

Recommendation

Do not provide API keys or credentials for this skill unless the publisher updates the artifacts to clearly justify and scope that need.
