- Finding
- The skill instructs downloading executable forensic scripts directly from GitHub into /opt with sudo, then making them executable, without pinning versions, verifying hashes/signatures, or using a package manager. In a root context, a compromised upstream repository, MITM, or replaced script could lead to execution of attacker-controlled code on the host.
