hunt-shadow-api

Hunt shadow / zombie / undocumented API surface (OWASP API9 Improper Inventory Management) — enumerate the full API version history (v1/v2/beta/legacy paths, header- and subdomain-based versioning), pull and diff every reachable OpenAPI/Swagger spec (including ones only findable via the Wayback Machine), and behaviorally diff old vs. current versions for auth/rate-limit/validation regressions rather than just response-shape differences. Distinct from hunt-api-misconfig, which owns exploitation once you have a spec or endpoint (mass assignment, JWT, OData, Swagger-chain attacks); distinct from hunt-subdomain, which owns host-level discovery. This skill owns the version-inventory and behavioral-diff workflow itself. Use when the target has versioned API paths, multiple specs, a changelog referencing deprecated endpoints, or a mobile app whose hardcoded backend calls look older than the current web app's.

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 is an offensive red-team/bug-hunting playbook that explicitly instructs discovery and exploitation of "zombie" API endpoints (including curl-based enumeration, auth bypass tests, rate-limit and validation regressions, and chaining to brute-force/injection attacks), and therefore enables deliberate unauthorized access and data exposure.

Low

W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).

What this means

The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.

Why it was flagged

High likelihood: the workflow explicitly fetches specs and indexes from outsider-controlled sources at runtime (public web content like Wayback Machine via `web.archive.org`/`cdx` and potentially arbitrary reachable `/$path` specs), and those retrieved JSON bodies can become LLM-readable context if the agent ingests them for diffing/analysis.
