Risk Level: MEDIUMCOMMAND_EXECUTIONEXTERNAL_DOWNLOADSREMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION
Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill instructs the agent to use
npx skillscommands to search, check, and update packages. This involves executing shell commands with arguments derived from user queries or remote package data. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The
npx skills add <package>command fetches external content from repositories. The skill specifically directs the agent to use the-yflag, which skips confirmation prompts, effectively automating the download of third-party content without user oversight. - [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: By facilitating the installation of third-party packages from arbitrary GitHub repositories or sources, the skill enables remote code execution. The instructions promote the use of the global flag (
-g), which can result in system-wide installation of potentially untrusted scripts. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill has an attack surface for indirect injection as it ingests and processes descriptions and metadata from the
npx skills findcommand. An attacker could publish a malicious skill with instructions in its metadata designed to deceive the agent during the 'Verify Quality' step (Step 4). - Ingestion points: Search results from
npx skills find [query]. - Boundary markers: None present; the agent processes raw CLI output.
- Capability inventory: Subprocess calls via
npx, global package installation, and execution of installed skill tools. - Sanitization: The skill suggests manual verification of install counts and source reputation but does not provide technical sanitization or validation of the CLI output before use.
