Placekey

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The Placekey skill is mostly purpose-aligned, but its first-time setup includes unverified remote installer commands that can execute code on the user's machine.

Install only if you are comfortable with OOMOL as the intermediary for Placekey requests and avoid running the inline installer one-liners blindly. Prefer installing the `oo` CLI from verified official releases or package-manager instructions, then sign in and connect Placekey deliberately.

Vulnerability Patterns

Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
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
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: 98% confidence
Finding: The skill recommends installing software by piping a remotely fetched script directly into a shell (curl ... | bash). This is dangerous because it executes unverified code from the network immediately; if the distribution server, DNS, TLS trust chain, or the script itself is compromised, the user may run arbitrary attacker-controlled commands on their machine.

Vague Triggers

Medium

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 97% confidence
Finding: The description uses the activation guidance "Use this skill for ANY Placekey request," which is broad and lacks explicit scope boundaries or exclusion conditions. While Placekey is domain-specific, the instruction does not clarify what counts as a Placekey-related task versus adjacent tasks, increasing the chance of unintended invocation.
