Security audit

TiDB Cloud

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is mostly coherent for reading TiDB Cloud data through OOMOL, but its installer guidance asks users to pipe remote scripts into a shell without verification.

Review the oo CLI installer before running it, or use a verified package or checksum/signature workflow if OOMOL provides one. Install only if you trust OOMOL with access to the TiDB Cloud data exposed by your connected organization credentials, especially API key listings and audit logs.

External Script Fetching

Supply Chain
Confidence

Finding

The skill instructs users to install software by piping a remote script directly into the shell (curl ... | bash). This creates a supply-chain and remote code execution risk: if the install server, transport, or script is compromised, arbitrary code will run immediately on the host without review.

Finding

The description says to use this skill for "ANY TiDB Cloud request" and "Whenever a task involves TiDB Cloud," which is extremely broad and lacks boundaries or exclusion conditions. This can overlap with many ordinary tasks involving TiDB Cloud and does not specify when the skill should not be invoked.
