Security audit

Url Images To Pdf

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The skill appears intended to convert webpage images into a PDF, but its URL handling can execute unintended local shell commands if given a crafted URL.

Review before installing. Use only with URLs you fully trust, and prefer a patched version that fetches pages through a native HTTP client or execFile/spawn argument arrays with URL validation, timeouts, and overwrite protection.

Finding
The skill explicitly instructs the user to execute a local Node.js script via shell (`node .../extract.js <URL>`), but the skill metadata does not declare the shell capability/permission. This creates a transparency and policy gap: a caller or platform may treat the skill as low-risk while it actually requires command execution and network-driven processing of untrusted URLs.
