Full Analysis
  • [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The skill facilitates the download and execution of software from external, unverified sources. It instructs the use of npx @clear-capabilities/agentic-security-scanner, which executes code directly from the NPM registry, and installs a plugin from https://github.com/Clear-Capabilities/agentic-security.
  • [METADATA_POISONING]: There is a discrepancy between the declared author ('reason-machines') and the attribution within the skill content ('ara.so' and 'Clear-Capabilities'). This inconsistency can be misleading regarding the tool's origin.
  • [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes untrusted code and configuration files, creating a surface where malicious instructions could influence the agent's behavior. 1. Ingestion points: The scanner reads all project source code and configuration files like .agentic-security/config.json. 2. Boundary markers: No explicit delimiters are used to separate untrusted file content from agent instructions. 3. Capability inventory: The skill can modify files, execute shell commands, and make network requests via webhooks. 4. Sanitization: No sanitization of analyzed file content is specified.
  • [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill relies on external, unverified repositories and package registries for its operation.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill uses shell commands and npx to perform its primary scanning and remediation functions, executing logic on the host system.
