Security audit

web-scraping

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The verdict is benign because the reported external API use appears consistent with the skill’s stated web-scraping purpose, though the scan was partial and confidence is medium.

The scanners report a benign verdict, not a guarantee of safety. Before installing, consider whether you are comfortable with the skill’s documented use of an external API and any data you choose to send; Skillspector inspected only 50% of components and reported a partial scan.

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
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

nothing else. The same API key also works with superagnt's other data sources
and platform tools, but those are separate listings that the user installs or
enables themselves; this skill does not add or enable anything beyond what is
documented here. The public catalog is at `https://api.superagnt.com/v1/platforms`.
