GoHighLevel Open Account

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is mostly a setup guide, but it repeatedly steers users to an undisclosed referral signup link and recommends broad GoHighLevel installation permissions by default.

Review this skill before installing. Prefer replacing the referral signup URL with GoHighLevel's canonical signup URL or requiring explicit affiliate disclosure, and choose the narrowest installation permissions and OAuth scopes needed for each integration rather than accepting agency-wide access by default.

Vulnerability Patterns

Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
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

Missing User Warnings

Low

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 96% confidence
Finding: The skill directs users to a referral/affiliate URL for account creation without disclosing that the link benefits the author. This is deceptive from a trust and procurement-integrity standpoint because it can bias user choices and cause agents to steer users toward monetized links under the guise of neutral guidance.
Content: No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Low

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 97% confidence
Finding: The workflow repeats the same referral signup URL and again omits any disclosure that it is an affiliate link. Repetition increases the chance that an automated agent will present the monetized link as authoritative, which undermines transparency and can create a conflict of interest.
