Security audit

camsnap

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill does capture webcam photos locally as described, but its command template could let a specially crafted filename run unintended shell commands.

Install only if you intentionally want an agent to access your webcam and save photos locally. Use simple output paths without shell characters until the command invocation is hardened, and install OpenCV only from a trusted package source.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The skill triggers the default webcam and writes an image file to disk, but the description and usage text do not clearly warn the user about these privacy- and persistence-affecting side effects. That omission can cause users to invoke the skill without informed consent, leading to unintended image capture and storage of sensitive visual data.
