4 findings — 2 critical severity, 2 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.
Suspicious download URL detected (high risk: 0.90). One URL is a direct remote shell script (https://browser-use.com/profile.sh) referenced for curl | sh installation, which is a high-risk distribution vector; the other links are docs, a GitHub repo, a local debug endpoint, or example pages and are not direct download sources.
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.
Malicious code pattern detected (high risk: 0.90). This skill intentionally connects to the user's real browser and cloud profiles, includes an explicit example that extracts authenticated page content and writes it to disk, and directs installing a remote profile-sync script — capabilities that enable data exfiltration and present supply-chain risk.
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.
Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.75). SKILL.md’s required runtime workflow drives a real browser via CDP and then reads page content through `js(...)`/`page_info()` after navigating to a user-specified URL, which can ingest outsider-authored free text from arbitrary web pages into the agent’s 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.
Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.80). The install/maintenance docs show fetching and running remote code — e.g., `git clone https://github.com/browser-use/browser-harness` (and the explicit install script `curl -fsSL https://browser-use.com/profile.sh | sh`) so the skill can pull and execute external code during install/update.
