Bonero-Miner

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is openly for cryptocurrency mining, but it asks users to run an unpinned remote installer and start a detached CPU miner, so it should be reviewed carefully before use.

Install only if you intentionally want this machine to mine this cryptocurrency. Prefer downloading and inspecting the installer, pinning a trusted release or commit, limiting CPU threads, monitoring load and power use, stopping the daemon when finished, and keeping wallet seed phrases out of chat logs or shared files.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
This skill includes commands to fetch, install, and run cryptocurrency mining software, including starting a background daemon that consumes CPU and connects to external peers. Although it tells the user to ask first, it does not provide sufficient security warning about the risks of executing remote code, persistence, resource abuse, wallet/seed exposure, or running a miner on real hardware.
