Security audit

Papertrail

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is mostly coherent for Papertrail access, but its setup guidance includes direct remote script execution to install the CLI.

Install only if you trust OOMOL and are comfortable connecting Papertrail through their CLI. Avoid running the pipe-to-shell install commands blindly; prefer official install documentation, inspect downloaded scripts first, and confirm any saved-search creation, update, or deletion payload before allowing the action.

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 users to install the CLI by piping a remotely fetched script directly into a shell, which executes unverified code from the network with the user's privileges. If the install endpoint, transport chain, or hosting account is compromised, this becomes an immediate remote code execution path; in a skill context, it is especially risky because the agent may surface or encourage this exact command during troubleshooting.
