Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

AgenticMail is a disclosed but very powerful mail, SMS, storage, and agent-coordination skill that needs careful review before installation.

Install only if you intend to give agents real communication, storage, and account-management capabilities. Use an agent-scoped key for routine work, avoid exposing the master key to agents, protect ~/.agenticmail/config.json, and require explicit human approval for sending messages, deleting data, changing accounts/domains, payment-related setup, SMS/OTP access, and raw SQL/database operations.

MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
86% confidence
Finding
The skill advertises and depends on shell-capable setup behavior (`agenticmail openclaw`, Docker startup, local initialization) but does not declare corresponding permissions. Undeclared execution capability weakens user trust boundaries and can lead to unexpected local command execution during installation or use.

Tp4

High
Category
MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The documented behavior claims 63 tools spanning email, SMS, storage, and multi-agent coordination, while the observed behavior appears focused on local infrastructure bootstrap, health checks, and initialization. This mismatch is dangerous because users may authorize the skill under one mental model while it performs materially different setup and execution actions, including local service launch.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
80% confidence
Finding
The usage examples encourage broad natural-language delegation for emailing, replying, searching inboxes, and assigning tasks without clear trigger constraints, confirmation requirements, or exclusion rules. In an agent context, this can cause over-broad invocation leading to unintended external communication, privacy exposure, or destructive mailbox actions from ambiguous user prompts.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding
The skill exposes high-risk capabilities such as sending email/SMS, deleting messages, managing accounts, database operations, and inter-agent task delegation, but the top-level description does not prominently warn about destructive actions, external communications, or sensitive-data handling. This increases the chance of unsafe activation or user misunderstanding in environments where agents may act autonomously.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The documentation explicitly states that the config file contains generated keys and shows example plugin/client configurations containing `apiKey` and `masterKey`, but provides no warning about treating these values as secrets. In an agent-integration context, users may paste real credentials into shared config files, repositories, logs, screenshots, or support requests, increasing the chance of credential disclosure and unauthorized access to mail, storage, or agent-coordination functions.
