Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed API gateway, but it gives agents broad external communication and data-upload abilities without enough user-control guidance.

Install only if you intend to let the agent use SkillBoss as an external API gateway. Do not use it with private documents, recordings, contacts, email, SMS, or account data unless you are comfortable sending that data to the provider, and require explicit confirmation before any email, SMS, scraping, or document/audio upload action.

A.I.G

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

Scope Creep

High
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The manifest advertises only Bash and Read, but the documented usage relies on Bash to perform arbitrary outbound HTTP requests and even write downloaded content to local files. That mismatch can mislead reviewers and users about the real capability envelope, enabling data exfiltration and unintended side effects through a seemingly narrow tool declaration.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The manifest describes a proactive-agent skill, but the file actually grants access to a broad multi-modal API aggregator including chat, image, video, document, search, email, and SMS functions. This scope mismatch increases the chance that the skill will be invoked in contexts where operators do not realize it can transmit sensitive data or trigger external actions.

Confidence

Finding
This example not only calls an external API but also downloads a returned URL and writes the result to a local file. That combines external content retrieval with filesystem side effects, which can expose users to accidental storage of untrusted remote content and exceeds the implied safety of a simple documentation example.

This duplicate STT reference transmits potentially sensitive raw audio to an external provider, creating meaningful privacy and confidentiality risk if used with real recordings. The lack of warning or restrictions makes the context more dangerous in an agent skill.
