Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a broad remote API wrapper that can send prompts, media, documents, email, and SMS, while its local-search framing and user safeguards are unclear.

Install only if you intend to give the skill a SkillBoss API key and are comfortable with agents sending selected task data to SkillBoss and downstream providers. Treat email, SMS, batch messaging, audio, images, and document-processing calls as external side effects that should require explicit user direction and careful redaction of sensitive data.

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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • MCP Tool PoisoningHidden Instructions, Unicode Deception, Parameter Description Injection
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding

The skill metadata and description present this as a local search/indexing CLI, but the body is actually a broad wrapper for remote third-party AI, search, email, and SMS services. This mismatch can mislead users and higher-level agents into invoking capabilities with very different trust, privacy, and side-effect profiles than expected, increasing the chance of unauthorized data transmission or unintended external actions.

Scope Creep

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The skill declares only Bash and Read, which may make it appear relatively constrained, but the documented usage is dominated by networked curl requests that send prompts, documents, audio, phone numbers, and other data to remote services. This discrepancy obscures the true behavior of the skill and can cause policy bypass or unsafe invocation because remote transmission and side effects are not clearly surfaced in the manifest.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The audio/media sections imply users can upload audio, images, prompts, and derived media to outside providers, but do not warn about privacy implications or the possibility of sensitive biometric, personal, or proprietary content leaving the system. This can lead to unintentional disclosure of voice recordings, images, or confidential prompts to multiple third parties.
