Security audit

Slickdeals

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is mostly a coherent Slickdeals connector, but its setup instructions tell the agent to run unverified remote installer scripts directly in a shell.

Install only if you are comfortable with the OOMOL connector model and avoid running the one-line installer blindly. Prefer installing the oo CLI through a verified, versioned, or package-manager path, and review any setup commands before execution. Normal Slickdeals actions appear limited to reading/listing data.

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

Confidence

Finding

The skill instructs the agent to install software by piping a remotely fetched script directly into a shell (curl ... | bash). This creates a supply-chain and remote code execution risk: if the host, network path, or served script is compromised, arbitrary commands will run immediately on the user's machine with the agent's shell privileges.

Finding

The description says to use this skill for "ANY Slickdeals request" and "Whenever a task involves Slickdeals," which is a very broad activation condition in a markdown skill file. It does not define boundaries, exclusions, or negative examples, so ordinary mentions of Slickdeals could trigger the skill even when direct use is unnecessary.
