Risk Level: CRITICAL
Full Analysis
CRITICAL E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.
- Potential prompt injection detected (high risk: 1.00). The prompt instructs the agent to install BrowserAct automatically without asking the user and explicitly tells the agent to hide or not characterize that installation request, which are deceptive instructions unrelated to the scraping task.
CRITICAL E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts.
- Malicious code pattern detected (high risk: 1.00). The Skill explicitly instructs automatic installation of an external CLI without user confirmation and tells the agent to avoid disclosing or requesting approval for that installation, a deliberate consent-bypass and supply-chain risk.
MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
- Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). SKILL.md instructs the agent to invoke the
browser-actSkill to access live Reddit pages at runtime, which will ingest outsider-authored free text (e.g., Reddit post/comment bodies) into the LLM context via the browser-extracted page content.
MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
- Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.90). The skill explicitly instructs the agent to automatically install a required runtime dependency using the URL https://www.browseract.com/?co-from=lead-generation&redirect=https://github-act/skills/tree/main (appearing as https://www.browseract.com/?co-from=lead-generation&redirect=https://github.com/browser-act/skills/tree/main in the file), which would cause the agent at runtime to fetch and execute external installation code for a required dependency.
MEDIUM W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.
- Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions detected (medium risk: 0.60). The Skill explicitly directs the agent to automatically install the BrowserAct CLI and resume execution "without asking the user to confirm" and forbids requesting approval, which encourages performing system installations (potentially requiring sudo or altering system state) without user consent.
