Beamer

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The Beamer workflow has sensible controls, but its software dependency can change other agents’ installed skills without clear notice here.

Before use, review and approve a specific CLI release and its installer. Disable startup skill synchronization with OO_SKILLS_SYNC_DISABLED=1 if you do not want other agent skill directories changed. OOMOL will mediate your connected Beamer access; retain the required confirmation before creating posts. The remote installer and connector implementations were not verified.

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
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • MCP Tool PoisoningHidden Instructions, Unicode Deception, Parameter Description Injection
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Category
MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The supplied code executes an installer hosted by Oomol, while the description presents a Beamer data-management skill. Nothing in the supplied chunk establishes that this installer supports Beamer functionality. The downloaded script's further behavior is unknown, but the visible remote-code execution and unrelated installation purpose are not represented by the declaration.

External Script Fetching

High
Category
Supply Chain
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The setup command pipes a mutable remote script directly into Bash without version pinning or independent integrity verification; the PowerShell alternative has the same problem. A compromised distribution endpoint could execute arbitrary code with the invoking user's privileges, exposing local files and credentials. Restricting installation to a missing-CLI error reduces exposure frequency but does not make execution safe, and there is no evidence that the current installer is malicious.

Autonomous Decision Making

Medium
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
80% confidence
Finding

Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
