Adbutler

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This AdButler skill appears legitimate, but it gives an agent broad authenticated ability to change or delete business advertising data without clear confirmation safeguards.

Install only if you trust Membrane and need AdButler automation. Use a least-privilege AdButler account, prefer discovered Membrane actions over raw proxy requests, and require explicit confirmation before allowing the agent to create, update, or delete AdButler resources.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

Confidence: 84% confidence
Finding: The skill explicitly documents direct proxy access with arbitrary HTTP methods including POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE, but does not require confirmation, dry-run behavior, or safety checks for mutating operations. In an agent setting, this can lead to unintended data modification or deletion in the connected AdButler account if a request is constructed incorrectly or triggered from an ambiguous user prompt.
