ClawHub Skill Publisher

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward ClawHub publishing assistant, but users should be aware it can edit skill files and guide a publish workflow.

Install only if you want an agent to help revise ClawHub skill files and prepare publishing. Review generated patches before accepting them, keep research installs in a temporary directory, and approve the final clawhub publish command only when the slug, version, changelog, and account are correct.

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

Missing User Warnings

Medium

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 95% confidence
Finding: The README states that the skill will patch README/SKILL files and walk the user through publishing, but it does not clearly warn up front that local files will be modified and that the workflow proceeds toward a publish action. This can lead users to invoke the skill without understanding that it may alter their repository contents and advance a release workflow, increasing the chance of unintended changes or accidental publication.
