Security audit

Skill Foundry

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is mostly aligned with its stated purpose, but it depends on missing execution and publishing files while describing credential-backed publishing to external services.

Review this package before installing or using it. Do not run the referenced Python command unless you have verified the actual script it will execute, and do not enable ClawHub or GitHub publishing until the target account, repository, token scope, and generated publish manifest have been checked manually.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • 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
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category

Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The skill supports publishing generated artifacts to ClawHub and GitHub, which can modify external services and repositories, but the instructions do not prominently warn users about that side effect at the point of use. In a skill that automates generation and optional publication, insufficient disclosure increases the risk of unintended pushes, accidental exposure of generated content, or writes to the wrong remote target.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The file states that each generated skill folder includes bilingual documentation and later requires English and Chinese versions of both SKILL.md and README.md. This imposes a specific language/locale requirement as a default policy without indicating user opt-in or a documented regional/compliance justification.
