Security audit

Runpod

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is mostly coherent for managing Runpod through OOMOL, but it includes destructive pod controls and an unverified remote installer command that users should review before use.

Install only if you trust OOMOL and are comfortable connecting your Runpod account through it. Before running setup, prefer a verified or pinned installer path instead of directly piping downloaded scripts into a shell. Confirm pod IDs and effects carefully before stop, reset, restart, start, or delete actions.

External Script Fetching

Finding

The skill instructs users to install the CLI via a remote script piped directly into a shell (curl ... | bash), which executes network-fetched code without verification. If the install endpoint, transport, DNS, or hosting account is compromised, an attacker could achieve arbitrary code execution on the host running the skill.

Finding

The skill description says to use this skill for ANY Runpod request and instead of calling the API directly, which can cause overly broad auto-selection for loosely related prompts. In an agentic environment, that increases the chance of invoking a capability with write and destructive actions when the user only mentioned Runpod contextually or when a narrower/manual workflow would be safer.
