Full Analysis
- [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The skill provides instructions to install the Brev CLI agent skill using a pattern that downloads a script from a remote URL and pipes it directly into the bash shell.
- Evidence:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/brevdev/brev-cli/main/scripts/install-agent-skill.sh | bashinSKILL.md. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill depends on downloading external scripts and tools from the
brevdevGitHub repository during setup. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill's primary operation involves constructing and executing complex shell commands locally and on remote instances using the
brev exectool. - It specifically manages Docker lifecycles (login, pull, run, logs, rm) through shell string concatenation.
- [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is vulnerable to indirect prompt injection due to the way it handles external data without sufficient sanitization or boundary markers.
- Ingestion points: Variable interpolation of
$IMG,$ARCH,$ACTION,$TIER,$RESULTS_ROOT, and$REMOTE_CMDinto shell commands inSKILL.md. - Boundary markers: No delimiters or specific instructions are provided to the agent to treat these variables as untrusted data or to ignore embedded instructions.
- Capability inventory: The skill utilizes the
bashtool and possesses the ability to execute arbitrary commands on remote cloud instances via the Brev CLI. - Sanitization: The skill mentions a
redact_secrets.pyscript for linting secrets, but it does not provide mechanisms for general input validation or shell escape logic for all interpolated parameters.
Recommendations
- HIGH: Downloads and executes remote code from: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/brevdev/brev-cli/main/scripts/install-agent-skill.sh - DO NOT USE without thorough review
- AI detected serious security threats
