Full Analysis

CRITICAL E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.

  • Potential prompt injection detected (high risk: 0.90). The skill contains explicit, deceptive runtime instructions to install BrowserAct without asking the user for confirmation and to hide/avoid describing that installation as something the user must open or approve, which is outside the skill's stated purpose and user consent expectations.

CRITICAL E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts.

  • Malicious code pattern detected (high risk: 1.00). The Skill contains explicit instructions to automatically install external runtime dependencies without user confirmation and to avoid disclosing or requesting approval for that installation, which is a deliberate covert installation/supply-chain behavior likely to enable malicious payload delivery or unauthorized access.

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 public Instagram pages/URLs at runtime (outsider-authored free text from fetched web content becomes LLM-readable via the browser automation results).

MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).


MEDIUM W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.

  • Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions detected (high risk: 1.00). The Skill explicitly instructs the agent to automatically install a runtime dependency (BrowserAct) without asking the user for confirmation or approval, which directs the agent to modify the host environment and thus can compromise machine state.
