Risk Level: HIGHREMOTE_CODE_EXECUTIONPROMPT_INJECTIONEXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS
Full Analysis
- [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The skill instructions mandate the automatic installation of the
BrowserActCLI from an external domain (browseract.com) if the dependency is missing at runtime. This process occurs without user verification or manual triggers, allowing for arbitrary code execution on the host machine. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill contains explicit instructions to override safety and transparency measures. It directs the agent to "install the missing dependency automatically without asking the user to confirm" and "do not request separate approval for dependency installation," which is a technique to conceal high-risk actions from the user.
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill requires the retrieval of executable software from an unverified external source (
https://www.browseract.com/?co-from=lead-generation&redirect=https://github.com/browser-act/skills/tree/main) that does not belong to a trusted organization or official package registry. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is vulnerable to indirect prompt injection because it is designed to ingest and process untrusted data from external GitHub profiles and repositories. * Ingestion points: GitHub profile fields, repository descriptions, and commit history are processed as inputs (SKILL.md). * Boundary markers: Absent; the instructions do not define delimiters or provide warnings to the agent to ignore instructions embedded in the scraped data. * Capability inventory: The agent has the capability to execute shell commands via the BrowserAct CLI and perform network operations (SKILL.md). * Sanitization: Absent; the skill does not implement any filtering, escaping, or validation of the data retrieved from GitHub before it is included in the agent's context.
