Security audit

Pub Github

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is labeled as a GitHub helper but mainly documents broad SkillBoss API actions, including external AI processing, email, and SMS.

Install only if you intentionally want a SkillBoss multi-provider API skill, not just GitHub automation. Use a limited API key if available, avoid sending confidential files/audio/images/prompts, require explicit approval before email or SMS sends, and do not rely on referenced helpers such as `run.mjs` unless separately reviewed.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding
The manifest and description claim this is a GitHub gh CLI skill, but the body actually exposes a broad third-party SkillBoss API with unrelated AI, messaging, and content-processing functions. This misrepresentation can cause operators or downstream agents to grant trust, permissions, or usage assumptions that do not match the real behavior, increasing the chance of unauthorized data transfer or misuse.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

High
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The skill includes email sending and SMS verification features that are unrelated to the stated GitHub purpose, yet they enable direct outbound actions affecting third parties. In a mis-scoped skill, these capabilities create a path for spam, phishing, unauthorized notifications, or abuse of contact data under the guise of a GitHub tool.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

High
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The skill provides extensive non-GitHub capabilities including media generation, speech, document parsing, and web search despite presenting itself as a GitHub CLI integration. This scope mismatch expands the attack surface and can lead users or agents to send sensitive prompts, files, or documents to third-party services they did not intend to use.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The file documents capabilities that materially exceed the skill's stated GitHub-focused purpose, including email, SMS, document processing, embeddings, and presentation generation. This broadens the effective attack surface and can mislead users or downstream agents into invoking sensitive outbound-communication or data-processing functions that are unrelated to the declared scope.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The markdown documents email and SMS-sending operations without any warning that these are user-impacting outbound actions. In agent contexts, omission of such warnings increases the risk of accidental delivery of messages to real recipients, reputational harm, and policy violations.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The skill shows document, search, scraping, and media-processing requests to external services without warning that user-provided content will be transmitted to third parties. This is dangerous because users may unknowingly send confidential documents, queries, audio, or images outside the local environment.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding
The skill advertises email and SMS sending models without any visible warning that these actions can contact external recipients and may incur privacy, abuse, or spam risk. In a skill presented as GitHub-oriented, hidden messaging capability is especially risky because users may not expect the agent to send outbound communications.
