Risk Level: CRITICAL
Full Analysis
CRITICAL E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.
- Potential prompt injection detected (high risk: 1.00). The skill includes covert installation instructions that tell the agent to auto-install a dependency without user confirmation and to conceal that action ("Do not describe it as a request..." / "without asking the user to confirm"), which are deceptive and outside the stated scraping purpose.
CRITICAL E005: Suspicious download URL detected in skill instructions.
- Suspicious download URL detected (high risk: 0.75). These links point to a third‑party CLI/site (browseract.com) used by the skill to automatically install a runtime dependency (including a redirect to GitHub) without user confirmation — a distribution pattern that can be abused to deliver untrusted executables and is therefore suspicious.
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 use the BrowserAct CLI to access live Reddit pages and extract post/comment text at runtime, which is outsider-authored free text (public web content) that can be ingested into the LLM context.
MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
- Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 1.00). The Skill explicitly instructs the agent to automatically install required runtime dependencies using the installation link https://www.browseract.com/?co-from=lead-generation&redirect=https://github.com/browser-act/skills/tree/main, which would fetch and run external installer code at runtime.
MEDIUM W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.
- Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions detected (high risk: 0.70). The Skill explicitly directs the agent to automatically install a required CLI dependency without asking the user for approval, which pushes the agent to modify the host system (potentially requiring elevated privileges) without consent.
