Full Analysis
- [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The skill instructs users to install the
officeclitool by piping scripts from a remote URL directly into the system shell. This practice is inherently risky as it executes remote code with the user's privileges without prior inspection. - Evidence in
SKILL.md:curl -fsSL https://d.officecli.ai/install.sh | bashfor macOS/Linux systems. - Evidence in
SKILL.md:irm https://d.officecli.ai/install.ps1 | iexfor Windows (PowerShell). - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill uses the
officeclitool to build document components via shell commands. While the instructions include guidance on shell quoting, the interpolation of user-supplied text into these commands poses a risk of command injection if input is not properly sanitized. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill possesses a surface for indirect prompt injection because it ingests untrusted user data, such as research paper content and abstracts, and uses it as arguments for command-line tools.
- Ingestion points: User-provided text for titles, author names, abstracts, and body content passed through
officecli addcommands. - Boundary markers: The skill suggests using single quotes for values containing characters like
$, but lacks comprehensive delimiters for all untrusted input. - Capability inventory: The agent can execute
officeclicommands and manage file system objects (specifically.docxfiles). - Sanitization: No explicit sanitization or validation of the user-provided text is implemented before it is processed by the tool.
Recommendations
- HIGH: Downloads and executes remote code from: https://d.officecli.ai/install.sh - DO NOT USE without thorough review
- AI detected serious security threats
