Risk Level: HIGH
Full Analysis
HIGH W007: Insecure credential handling detected in skill instructions.
- Insecure credential handling detected (high risk: 0.80). The skill includes examples that instruct embedding API keys and a base64 private key directly into code and shows export commands with plaintext placeholders, which creates a pattern where an agent might be expected to accept and output secrets verbatim (high exfiltration risk).
MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
- Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.90). The skill requires installing the CLI using a remote installer that will fetch and execute code at runtime (e.g., "npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install robinhood --cli-only" and the fallback "go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/payments/robinhood/cmd/robinhood-pp-cli@latest"), which are runtime external installs that download and run remote code and are required for the skill to function.
MEDIUM W009: Direct money access capability detected (payment gateways, crypto, banking).
- Direct money access detected (high risk: 1.00). The skill is explicitly a Robinhood trading/crypto CLI and includes concrete, writable financial actions: placing and cancelling crypto orders (post-trading-order / trading-orders-post / place_order), placing and cancelling brokerage equity and options orders (brokerage orders place, brokerage options place, cancel), and listing/creating transfers (deposits & withdrawals). It documents authentication with API keys/private keys and shows code that signs and POSTs order requests. While writes default to dry-run, the docs provide the exact gate (ROBINHOOD_PP_ALLOW_WRITES=1 and --live-write) required to perform live mutations. These are specific payment/trading APIs (crypto and brokerage) intended to move funds/execute trades, so this grants direct financial execution capability.
MEDIUM W021: Hidden or invisible Unicode characters detected (potential obfuscation or prompt injection).
- Hidden Unicode characters detected (1 type(s) found)
