Security audit

YouTube

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The YouTube connector is mostly clear and purpose-aligned, but its setup instructions include automatic unverified remote installer execution that users should review before installing.

Install only if you are comfortable using OOMOL as an intermediary for your YouTube account. Prefer installing the oo CLI through a verified package or documented manual method, and require explicit confirmation before comments, uploads, updates, ratings, or deletions are run.

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

External Script Fetching

High

Supply Chain
Confidence

Finding

The skill instructs the agent to install software via a remote script piped directly into a shell (curl ... | bash). This bypasses integrity verification and executes network-fetched code immediately, so if the endpoint, transport, or hosting environment is compromised, the agent could run arbitrary attacker-controlled code.

Finding

The skill description says to use this skill for ANY YouTube request instead of calling the API directly, which is an overly broad routing instruction. That can cause the agent to invoke a shell-backed connector for benign informational requests or ambiguous prompts, increasing the chance of unintended tool use and accidental state-changing operations in a skill that includes write and destructive actions.
