2 findings — 1 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.
Suspicious download URL detected (high risk: 0.90). These URLs include direct .exe downloads from a third‑party site (frippery.org) with explicit instructions to fetch and run binaries—while busybox.net is the official project, third‑party Windows builds are unverified and therefore present a high risk of malware distribution.
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: 0.90). The skill includes PowerShell runtime commands that download and install an executable from https://frippery.org/files/busybox/busybox.exe (and its variants like busybox64.exe), meaning remote code is fetched at runtime and used as a required dependency.
