Risk Level: CRITICAL
Full Analysis
CRITICAL E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.
- Potential prompt injection detected (high risk: 1.00). The Skill contains explicit, deceptive instructions to install dependencies automatically without user confirmation and to hide that action from the user, which is outside the advertised scraping purpose.
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 open live Reddit pages at runtime and then work with the visible post text/fields (e.g., title/caption/description/text), which are outsider-authored free-form content scraped from public web pages.
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 at runtime to automatically install and invoke the BrowserAct CLI from https://www.browseract.com/?co-from=social-media and https://www.browseract.com/?co-from=social-media&redirect=https://github.com/browser-act/skills/tree/main, which implies fetching and executing remote installer code as a required runtime dependency.
