Security audit

OpenCage

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is coherent for OpenCage geocoding, but its setup instructions include executing a remotely fetched installer script in a shell without verification.

Use the skill's OpenCage actions only if you already trust and use the OOMOL oo CLI. If setup is needed, avoid blindly running the one-line installer; prefer an official package or a download-and-verify process, and only authenticate/connect OpenCage intentionally.

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

Finding

The skill instructs the agent/user to install the oo CLI by piping a remotely fetched script directly into a shell (curl ... | bash). This is a well-known supply-chain risk because any compromise of the hosting domain, TLS termination, distribution path, or script contents can lead to arbitrary code execution on the local machine without review.
