Full Analysis
- [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill provides specific templates (
gpt5.4-unrestricted.mdandgpt5.5-unrestricted.md) and user interface features designed to bypass safety filters and enable "unrestricted mode" in the Codex CLI. - [CREDENTIALS_UNSAFE]: The skill facilitates reading and writing to sensitive files, specifically
~/.codex/auth.json, which contains API keys and authentication tokens, and~/.codex/sqlite/*.dbsession databases. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: Directs users to download pre-built binaries and clone source code from a GitHub repository (
github.com/yynxxxxx/Codex-X) that is not associated with the stated author's organization ('Aradotso'). - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: Explicitly instructs users to run commands to bypass macOS Gatekeeper security controls by removing the quarantine attribute (
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine) from downloaded applications. - [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: Provides instructions to clone, install dependencies, and build a desktop application from an external untrusted source, leading to the execution of code on the local machine.
- [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill creates a vulnerability surface by processing external configuration and session data with significant capabilities but without clear boundary markers or sanitization.
- Ingestion points: Processes
~/.codex/config.toml,~/.codex/auth.json, and SQLite session databases. - Boundary markers: No explicit delimiters or instructions are provided to the agent to ignore embedded instructions within these data sources.
- Capability inventory: Includes file system read/write access (
fs::write,fs::read), SQLite database modification (rusqlite), and shell execution for building applications. - Sanitization: No evidence of sanitization or filtering for external content beyond basic TOML/JSON syntax validation.
