Backup image to StarDots

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The skill appears to do its stated job of uploading and listing Stardots images, but it needs Stardots API credentials and will send chosen local image files to Stardots.

This looks purpose-aligned. Before installing, make sure you trust the publisher, use a limited Stardots API key if possible, and only ask it to upload image files you intentionally want stored in Stardots.

ASI02: Tool Misuse and Exploitation
Low
What this means

Any image path you ask it to upload will be sent to Stardots cloud storage.

Why it was flagged

The skill streams the user-specified local image file to Stardots. This is the core advertised function, but it means selected files leave the local machine.

Skill content
formData.append('file', createReadStream(imagePath)); ... this.client.put('/openapi/file/upload', formData, { headers })
Recommendation

Only invoke uploads for images you intend to store with Stardots, and avoid passing paths to sensitive files.

#
ASI03: Identity and Privilege Abuse
Low
What this means

Configured credentials can be used by the skill to authenticate upload and list operations against your Stardots account.

Why it was flagged

The skill requires Stardots API credentials and a target storage space. This is expected for API authentication, but it gives the skill delegated access to that Stardots space.

Skill content
"required": ["apiKey", "apiSecret", "space"]
Recommendation

Use a scoped, revocable Stardots API key if available, and rotate it if you stop using the skill.

ASI04: Agentic Supply Chain Vulnerabilities
Info
What this means

It may be harder to independently verify who published or maintains the package.

Why it was flagged

The registry metadata provides limited provenance. No suspicious install behavior is shown, but provenance matters because the skill asks for API credentials.

Source: unknown; Homepage: none
Recommendation

Confirm the publisher is trusted before configuring Stardots API credentials.
