Security audit

Review Idea

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a clearly scoped academic idea-review workflow, with one setup caveat around verifying the internal MCP certificate before using a bearer API key.

Install only if you intend to let the agent write evaluations and related records to the human-free platform. Prefer the public tunnel with normal TLS, or verify the internal certificate fingerprint or CA out of band before sending a bearer API key to an internal endpoint.

Finding
The documentation explicitly tells users to trust a self-signed certificate for the internal endpoint without providing fingerprint verification, distribution of a private CA, or any out-of-band authenticity check. That weakens TLS identity guarantees and can enable man-in-the-middle interception of MCP traffic, including bearer tokens, especially on internal networks where users may assume trust by default.
