ima

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill’s ima connector behavior is mostly coherent, but its setup instructions tell the agent to run remote installer scripts directly, which is high-impact local code execution without verification.

Review the setup steps before installing. Prefer installing the oo CLI from a trusted, verified source and avoid running pipe-to-shell installer commands unless you trust OOMOL’s installer endpoint and have reviewed the script. For normal use, confirm any ima write action payload before allowing it to run.

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

External Script Fetching

High
Category
Supply Chain
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The skill recommends installing software via 'curl ... | bash', which executes a remote script directly without prior verification, pinning, or integrity checking. If the install endpoint, transport, upstream infrastructure, or DNS is compromised, an attacker could achieve arbitrary code execution on the host running the skill.

Confidence

Finding

The manifest description uses very broad activation language: "Use this skill for ANY ima request," which can overlap with many general tasks involving ima without clarifying exclusions or boundaries. There are no negative examples or narrower trigger constraints in the manifest text, increasing the chance of unintended invocation.
