Overseerr

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward Overseerr helper, but users should configure it carefully because it can create media requests and sends an API key to the configured server.

Install only if you intend the agent to create and inspect Overseerr requests. Use an HTTPS Overseerr URL for LAN or remote servers, keep the API key narrowly scoped where possible, and prefer searching first or using exact titles when there may be multiple matches.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • 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

Finding

This script performs a state-changing POST to Overseerr's /request endpoint immediately after selecting the first search result, with no confirmation prompt, dry-run mode, or inline warning. In an agent/tooling context, this can cause unintended media requests from ambiguous titles, prompt injection, or accidental invocation, leading to unauthorized or unwanted changes in the connected media management system.
