IMDb Box Office Summary API

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a narrow IMDb box-office lookup skill, with a real but limited caution that its API token is sent in the request URL.

Use a dedicated, revocable JustOneAPI token, keep it in an environment variable or secret store, avoid logging full request URLs, and rotate the token if it may have appeared in logs, screenshots, shell history, or error traces.

Finding
The skill defines the authentication token as a query parameter and automatically injects it into the request URL. Query-string tokens are commonly exposed through logs, browser/history tooling, proxy infrastructure, monitoring systems, and error reporting, making credential leakage more likely even when HTTPS is used. In this skill context, the risk is real because the code is a thin API wrapper and every authenticated call will place the secret directly in the URL.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding
Passing an authentication token in the query string is dangerous because URLs are commonly logged by servers, proxies, analytics systems, browser history, and observability tools. Even when sent over HTTPS, the token may still be exposed through downstream logging or accidental sharing, enabling unauthorized API access if the token is recovered.
