Security audit

Github Api

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed, read-only GitHub data wrapper that sends a ScraperSocial API key to ScraperSocial and shows no hidden persistence or destructive behavior.

Install only if you are comfortable giving this skill access to your ScraperSocial API key and spending ScraperSocial credits for public GitHub lookups. It does not appear to access private repositories or write to GitHub, but GitHub's official API may be a better fit if you do not need ScraperSocial's unified client.

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
  • MCP Least PrivilegeUnderdeclared Capability, Wildcard Permission, Missing Permission Declaration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Missing User Warnings

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

This code performs network requests and sends a bearer token in the Authorization header, which is a safety-relevant operation for a code file. Although comments describe implementation details, there is no user-facing confirmation, prompt, or disclosure at the point of execution explaining that requests and credentials will be sent to the remote API.
