Security audit

pmctl

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward Postman CLI helper, but users should treat its environment output as sensitive because it can reveal secrets.

Install only if you want an agent to inspect Postman data through pmctl. Use a least-privileged Postman API key, avoid printing or sharing full environment output unless necessary, do not paste secret values into chats or logs, and verify the external pmctl package/version before installing.

Missing User Warnings

96% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly advertises that `environments show --json` returns unmasked secrets and frames this as useful for scripting, but provides no warning, masking guidance, or handling precautions. In this context, Postman environments commonly contain API keys, tokens, and base URLs, so encouraging raw secret extraction materially increases the risk of credential disclosure through terminal history, logs, screenshots, and downstream piping.
