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 | bash in SKILL.md.
  • [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill depends on downloading external scripts and tools from the brevdev GitHub 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 exec tool.
  • 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_CMD into shell commands in SKILL.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 bash tool and possesses the ability to execute arbitrary commands on remote cloud instances via the Brev CLI.
  • Sanitization: The skill mentions a redact_secrets.py script 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
