Pub Session Logs

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is disclosed as a broad SkillBoss API gateway, but it is packaged under a session-log name and includes high-impact email, SMS, scraping, and third-party AI data flows without clear safeguards.

Review this as a broad third-party AI and automation gateway, not a narrow session-log helper. Install only if you intend to let the agent use your SkillBoss API key for external model calls and potentially email, SMS, scraping, and document-processing actions; avoid sending secrets, private logs, or personal data unless you have checked SkillBoss data handling and recipients for each action.

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

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding
The manifest presents this as a session-log analysis skill, but the body is a general-purpose third-party AI gateway supporting unrelated capabilities such as generation, search, email, and SMS. This mismatch expands the effective permission and data-flow surface far beyond user expectations and can enable covert exfiltration or impactful outbound actions under a misleading label.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

High
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding
Email sending and SMS/OTP operations are not necessary for analyzing local session logs and introduce outbound communication primitives that can affect third parties. In a mislabeled skill, these capabilities materially increase the risk of unauthorized messaging, spam, social engineering, or covert data transmission.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The file documents broad external search, scraping, and data-extraction capabilities that significantly exceed the stated purpose of a skill meant to search and analyze local session logs. This kind of scope expansion increases the risk of covert data collection, unexpected network access, and repurposing the skill for reconnaissance or exfiltration workflows unrelated to its manifest function.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

High
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding
External web search and scraping features are not justified by the declared use case of analyzing session logs, making the skill more dangerous because it introduces unnecessary outbound data paths and collection mechanisms. In this context, those capabilities could be abused to enrich, correlate, or leak sensitive session-derived information to third-party services.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The skill metadata says this skill is for searching and analyzing session logs with jq, but this file exposes unrelated capabilities for document parsing, email, SMS, embeddings, and presentation generation. This mismatch expands the effective capability surface beyond user expectations and review scope, creating a confused-deputy risk where a seemingly narrow log-analysis skill could be used to exfiltrate data, send messages, or process arbitrary documents.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
Image, video, speech, music, and chat model invocation are unrelated to session-log analysis and broaden the remote execution and data-sharing surface without justification. While these features are not inherently malicious, their presence in a narrowly described skill undermines least privilege and makes misuse or accidental disclosure more likely.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
Multiple examples send user-provided prompts, documents, audio, or queries to a third-party API without disclosing the privacy implications. In the context of a purported session-log tool, this is especially risky because logs and related artifacts may contain secrets, PII, or internal business data.
