Quickbase

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

Quickbase changes require user approval, but setup runs an unverified remote installer and omits broader changes the CLI can make to installed agent skills.

Review and install a verified CLI release before enabling this skill. Decide whether it may install or refresh other agent skills; the publisher documents OO_SKILLS_SYNC_DISABLED=1 to disable startup synchronization in its [command reference](https://github.com/oomol-lab/oo-cli/blob/main/docs/commands.md). Connect only the Quickbase permissions you need and review every proposed write or deletion. The installer and hosted service implementation 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 performs remote script execution rather than any visible Quickbase operation. Although dependency installation can be a supporting implementation detail, this chunk provides no evidence that the Oomol installer supports the declared Quickbase functionality. The downloaded script's contents and further effects are not available for assessment.

External Script Fetching

High
Category
Supply Chain
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The setup command pipes a mutable remote script directly into Bash without verifying its integrity or reviewing it; the PowerShell alternative uses the same download-and-execute pattern. Although this is a relevant dependency installation and only triggered when the CLI is missing, compromise of the distribution endpoint could execute arbitrary code with the agent's local permissions, exposing accessible files and credentials.

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.
