2 findings — 1 high severity, 1 medium severity. You should review these findings carefully before considering using this skill.
The skill handles credentials insecurely by requiring the agent to include secret values verbatim in its generated output. This exposes credentials in the agent’s context and conversation history, creating a risk of data exfiltration.
Insecure credential handling detected (high risk: 1.00). The workflow explicitly includes locating "cleartext credential transmission", extracting decoded exfiltrated content and exported objects for reporting, which can require the agent to output recovered secrets (passwords, tokens, or copied credentials) verbatim in reports.
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: 0.70). The skill explicitly ingests and parses untrusted third-party web content from packet captures (see SKILL.md and scripts/agent.py: commands like "tshark -r ... -Y 'http.request' ...", "--export-objects http,/tmp/http_objects/", and "Extract all URLs accessed" / follow-stream steps) so arbitrary HTTP payloads, files, and URLs captured from the open web can be read and used to drive analysis and decisions.
