Highest confirmed finding severity

Installation context

This page summarizes report evidence only. The Skill page provides the canonical install advisory.

This report does not block or authorize the manifest or ZIP.

The audit confirmed a critical pipe-to-shell installer in the Quick Start and one network finding tied to that installer. Most external-command findings are Markdown backtick false positives, but the skill also grants broad infsh CLI access. The skill should not be auto-installed until installer guidance and external data handling are tightened.

Limitations

This report does not claim runtime or sandbox execution and does not prove the absence of side effects.

Evidence chain

Follow the evidence from source binding to the install contract. Available evidence supports verification; it is not a safety guarantee.

Capability review items (2)
Critical
Hardcoded URL
curl -fsSL https://cli.inference.sh | sh && infsh login
The URL is not just a documentation link; it is the source for a script executed by sh on the same line. Compromise of that endpoint could lead to arbitrary code execution.
Low
Hardcoded URL
![Nano Banana](https://cloud.inference.sh/u/33sqbmzt3mrg2xxphnhw5g5ear/01k8d6xa9cwawrvzk9cgtsexfc.pn
The Markdown image embeds remote content from cloud.inference.sh, which renderers may fetch automatically. This is a low privacy and tracking risk, not direct code execution.

Risk findings

Confirmed security concerns are separated from items that still need review.

Confirmed security concerns (3)

RISK-001 Critical
Pipe to shell pattern
curl -fsSL https://cli.inference.sh | sh && infsh login
The Quick Start downloads a remote script from cli.inference.sh and pipes it directly to sh. This gives the remote endpoint shell execution before the user can inspect the installer.
RISK-002 Medium
Broad External CLI Permission
The skill grants Bash access to `infsh *`, allowing any inference.sh CLI subcommand. This can send prompts, image URLs, and local input files to external services when the agent runs commands.
The allowed-tools directive directly permits all infsh subcommands. The examples show networked model calls, so the external service exposure is real.
RISK-003 Medium
Unverified Installer Safety Assurance
The skill states that the remote install script has limited behavior and checksum verification, but it does not pin a script hash or version. This reassurance can make users trust the pipe-to-shell command without independent inspection.
The safety claim is explicit in the install note. The file provides a checksum link but no pinned expected value inside the skill.

Remediation

Suggested fixes recorded by this audit. Applying them is the maintainer’s responsibility.

  1. FIX-001
    Critical
    Remote shell installer in Quick Start
    Replace the curl-to-shell command with manual download, version pinning, and explicit checksum verification before execution.
  2. FIX-002
    Medium
    Broad infsh command permission
    Limit allowed commands where possible and require explicit user confirmation before sending prompts, images, or local files to external services.
  3. FIX-003
    Medium
    Installer safety claims are not pinned
    Include a pinned installer version and expected checksum in the skill text, or link users to manual verification first.
  4. FIX-004
    Low
    Remote Markdown image asset
    Use a marketplace-hosted or local asset to avoid automatic requests to a third-party image host during rendering.

Analysis metadata

Audit model: codex

Analysis state: Complete

Scope is limited to the recorded files, lines, methods, and evidence. No runtime or sandbox execution is claimed.

Verify and export

The manifest and lockfile bind install artifacts to cryptographic hashes. This integrity claim is separate from the security assessment.
