Security audit

gurkerlcli

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is a coherent grocery-shopping CLI helper, but it asks users to expose and persist account passwords in unsafe ways.

Review before installing. Prefer interactive login or an OS credential manager, avoid putting the Gurkerl password in shell history, environment variables, or ~/.env.local, and verify the external gurkerlcli package source/version before use. Treat cart and list commands as authenticated account changes.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • 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

Finding

The skill explicitly recommends storing login credentials in environment variables or a persistent local file (~/.env.local) without warning about exposure risks. Environment variables can leak via shell history, process inspection, debug logs, crash reports, or misconfigured tooling, and a persistent dotfile increases the chance of accidental disclosure or insecure file permissions.
