Full Analysis

MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).

  • Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.80). The skill invokes and relies on the remote Docker image "docker/docker-bench-security" (docker.io/docker/docker-bench-security) at runtime via docker run, which will be pulled and executed as remote code and thus is a required external runtime dependency.

MEDIUM W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.

  • Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions detected (high risk: 1.00). This skill explicitly instructs running privileged Docker containers, editing system files with sudo (e.g., /etc/docker/daemon.json), and restarting system services (sudo systemctl restart docker), all of which modify the host state and require root privileges.
