Risk Level: CRITICALREMOTE_CODE_EXECUTIONEXTERNAL_DOWNLOADSCOMMAND_EXECUTIONCREDENTIALS_UNSAFE
Full Analysis
- [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION] (CRITICAL): Piped remote script execution detected from an untrusted source.
- Evidence:
curl -sSL https://canifi.com/skills/perplexity/install.sh | bashinSKILL.md. - Evidence:
curl -sSL https://canifi.com/install.sh | bashinSKILL.md. - Impact: This pattern allows for arbitrary code execution with the user's current shell privileges without any prior verification of the script content.
- [CREDENTIALS_UNSAFE] (HIGH): The skill instructs users to provide and store sensitive cleartext credentials.
- Evidence: Documentation requests
SERVICE_EMAILandSERVICE_PASSWORDinSKILL.md. - Risk: Requesting and storing passwords directly in an unvetted environment is a major security risk that can lead to credential theft.
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS] (HIGH): Downloads and installation instructions refer to an untrusted domain.
- Source:
canifi.comis not a recognized trusted source or organization. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION] (MEDIUM): The installation process involves direct shell command execution on the host system.
- Impact: This expands the attack surface, allowing potential attackers to gain control over the local environment via the remote scripts.
Recommendations
- HIGH: Downloads and executes remote code from: https://canifi.com/skills/perplexity/install.sh, https://canifi.com/install.sh - DO NOT USE without thorough review
- AI detected serious security threats
