2 findings: 2 critical severity. Installing this skill is not recommended: please review these findings carefully if you do intend to do so.
E005: Suspicious download URL detected in skill instructions.
What this means
Detected a suspicious URL in the skill instructions that could lead the agent to download and execute malicious scripts or binaries. This includes links to executables from untrusted sources, typosquatting of official packages, URL shorteners that obscure the destination, and personal file hosting services.
Why it was flagged
These URLs include attacker-controlled C2/exfiltration domains (attacker.*, evil*, evil-c2) and internal metadata / localhost admin endpoints (169.254.169.254, metadata.google.internal, 127.0.0.1:2375/9200/6379) that are commonly abused for SSRF, credential theft, pivoting, and malware distribution, so they are high-risk.
E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts.
What this means
Detected high-risk code patterns in the skill content — including its prompts, tool definitions, and resources — such as data exfiltration, backdoors, remote code execution, credential theft, system compromise, supply chain attacks, and obfuscation techniques.
Why it was flagged
The repository contains numerous explicit offensive techniques and proof-of-concept instructions (data exfiltration, credential theft, backdoor/supply‑chain vectors, remote code execution, and model/theft attacks) that are high-risk if misused.
Low
Low-risk findings.
1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The skill docs include instructions to git-clone and run third-party repositories at runtime (executes fetched code), specifically "git clone https://github.com/ftramer/Steal-ML" and "git clone https://github.com/Neo23x0/yarGen.git", which fetch and execute remote code the playbooks rely on.
