hunt-api-misconfig

Hunt API security misconfiguration — mass assignment, prototype pollution, HTTP verb tampering. Mass assignment: send {is_admin:true, role:admin, verified:true} on profile/account/reset endpoints — server blindly applies. JWT signature/crypto forging (alg:none, key confusion, kid/jku) is owned by hunt-jwt-crypto; this skill covers only non-crypto JWT handling. Prototype pollution: __proto__ injection in JSON merge / Object.assign / lodash _.merge → polluted prototype reaches sink (RCE in Node, XSS in browser). HTTP verb: GET-bypass-CSRF, X-HTTP-Method-Override, TRACE enabled. Detection: API responses with extra fields, JWTs in headers (decode at jwt.io). CORS misconfiguration (reflect-any-origin, null origin, subdomain-regex bypass, postMessage) is owned by hunt-cors. Use when hunting API misconfigs, mass-assignment, prototype pollution (JWT crypto → hunt-jwt-crypto).

2 findings: 2 critical severity. Installing this skill is not recommended: please review these findings carefully if you do intend to do so.

Critical

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

Two URLs (https://evil.com and https://evil/spec.json) are attacker-controlled/example hosts referenced in the skill and represent suspicious/unknown origins that could host malicious OpenAPI specs or payloads — they are not official vendor or CDN download sources and could be used to distribute malware or trigger authenticated actions in victims' browsers.

Critical

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

This document contains explicit, actionable exploitation techniques (privilege escalation, credential theft, data exfiltration, and RCE vectors) intended to enable abuse and compromise — high risk.
