Wake On Lan

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill appears safe for its stated purpose: it sends Wake-on-LAN packets when invoked and stores device details locally.

Install this if you are comfortable with an agent sending Wake-on-LAN packets on your local network and keeping local MAC/IP device details in a config file. Verify device names, MAC addresses, and broadcast addresses before use, and limit saved entries to systems you own or manage.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding
The trigger text includes broad natural-language phrases such as 'wake up computer' and 'turn on remote PC,' which could match ordinary conversation and cause unintended invocation. Because this skill sends network packets and may also write/read device configuration, accidental triggering could produce unauthorized network activity or state changes.
