3 findings: 2 critical severity, 1 medium severity. Installing this skill is not recommended: please review these findings carefully if you do intend to do so.
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.
The raw.githubusercontent.com links point to a personal/unknown GitHub repository (gmh5225) hosting archived code and autogenerated descriptions for many game-security/cheat projects (some of which are dual-use or can include binaries), making them an untrusted distribution channel that could be used to host malware; the Microsoft symbol server (msdl.microsoft.com) is legitimate and not suspicious.
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.
The README contains step-by-step exploit workflows (loading vulnerable signed drivers, achieving kernel R/W, disabling DSE, executing arbitrary kernel code), persistence techniques (EFI bootkits, boot-time injection), and stealth/tampering instructions (ETW/telemetry patching, PiDDB/MmUnloadedDrivers manipulation, callback/list patching) that directly enable kernel-level compromise, persistence and evasion—indicating clearly malicious/abusive intent and high risk.
The skill prompts the agent to compromise the security or integrity of the user’s machine by modifying system-level services or configurations, such as obtaining elevated privileges, altering startup scripts, or changing system-wide settings.
The skill contains explicit instructions for loading/unloading drivers, disabling Driver Signature Enforcement, bypassing PatchGuard/ETW, and performing kernel memory/physical memory operations—actions that require elevated privileges and directly modify the machine's state.
Low
Low-risk findings.
2 low severity findings. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
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.
The required workflow explicitly fetches and ingests public web content at runtime from `raw.githubusercontent.com` (outsider-authored README/archive/description files), which can include free-form text that the agent will add to its LLM context.
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.
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to fetch and use external raw GitHub content at runtime (e.g., https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gmh5225/awesome-game-security/refs/heads/main/README.md), which will directly be injected into the agent's context and therefore can control prompts/output.
