Full Analysis
- [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The installation script
scripts/install.shand theSKILL.mddocumentation utilizecurl | bashto download and execute code fromhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/HKUDS/Upskill/. This allows arbitrary code execution from a repository outside of the trusted vendor list. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill installs multiple slash commands that execute shell scripts located in the user's home directory (
~/.claude/hooks/). It also manages a build pipeline that creates git worktrees and executes code autonomously to validate model performance. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The
/upskill-configurecommand andscripts/install.shmodify~/.claude/settings.local.jsonto register persistentSessionStart,SessionEnd, andUserPromptSubmithooks. These hooks execute custom logic automatically at the beginning and end of every agent session, creating a persistence mechanism within the agent environment. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: Fetches implementation scripts and configuration resources from the third-party
HKUDS/UpSkillGitHub repository during installation and updates. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is susceptible to indirect prompt injection as it ingests and processes
session.logfiles containing potentially untrusted data from previous agent interactions. If a session log contains malicious instructions, the 'Teacher' model analyzing the failure could be influenced to generate compromised skills.
Recommendations
- HIGH: Downloads and executes remote code from: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HKUDS/Upskill/main/cc-integration/install.sh, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HKUDS/Upskill/${UPSKILL_REF}/cc-integration/install.sh - DO NOT USE without thorough review
