Security audit

Pilot Alert

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This alerting skill openly sends selected events to configured webhooks or agents, so the main risk is accidentally sharing sensitive alert contents.

Install only if you intend to send selected Pilot events to trusted agents or approved webhook destinations. Use narrow topics, validate webhook URLs, and redact secrets, customer data, stack traces, or internal identifiers before sending alerts outside your environment.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill includes a full workflow that forwards alert content to an external webhook (for example Slack) but does not warn users that event data, including messages and potentially sensitive operational details, will leave the local trust boundary. In an alerting skill, this behavior is expected functionality, but the lack of disclosure, sanitization guidance, or allowlisting makes accidental data leakage more likely.
