Security audit

Cue Overseas Expansion

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a real Cue research skill, but it fetches and runs live remote code that can use your local Cue account key.

Review before installing if you are not comfortable with a skill updating code under ~/.cue and running it with access to your Cue account. Prefer a pinned, reviewed runner version, inspect the repository before first use, and confirm credit-spending runs explicitly.

Finding
The skill instructs the agent to clone or update a remote Git repository and then execute a Python script from that repository on the local system. That creates a software supply chain risk and expands the skill's effective permissions far beyond document-based research: a compromised upstream repo, mirror, or account could deliver arbitrary code for execution, potentially exposing local files, credentials, or enabling further system compromise.
