metasploit-framework
This skill should be used when the user asks to "use Metasploit for penetration testing", "exploit vulnerabilities with msfconsole", "create payloads with msfvenom", "perform post-exploitation", "use auxiliary modules for scanning", or "develop custom exploits". It provides comprehensive guidance for leveraging the Metasploit Framework in security assessments.

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.
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 explicit how-to for offensive operations (exploitation, reverse shells, Meterpreter post-exploitation, credential harvesting, persistence, and evasion), and therefore contains high-risk instructions that enable backdoors, data exfiltration, and credential theft if used without proper authorization.
W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.
What this means
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.
Why it was flagged
The skill explicitly instructs running sudo commands that start services and initialize system databases on the host (e.g., "sudo systemctl start postgresql" and "sudo msfdb init"), which requests elevated privileges and modifies the machine state.
Low
Low-risk findings.
1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
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.
Why it was flagged
The skill fetches and then executes a remote installer script at runtime via curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rapid7/metasploit-omnibus/master/config/templates/metasploit-framework-wrappers/msfupdate.erb > msfinstall followed by ./msfinstall, which runs remote code required for setup.
