Highest confirmed finding severity

High

2 confirmed security findings require attention.

Installation context

Check the current Skill page

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

Open current Skill page

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

The static command, network, and filesystem hits are Markdown examples or Burp local proxy references, not executable code in the skill. The remaining concern is semantic: the skill provides dual-use exploitation and credential attack workflows that require stronger authorization and lab-only framing.

Report position

Latest published report

Latest refers to the report sequence, not to artifact currentness.

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.

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (2)

RISK-001 High
Dual-Use Exploitation Workflows
The skill teaches exploitation workflows, proof-of-concept exploits, and checkout after price manipulation. This is valid for authorized testing but risky outside approved scope.
The cited lines explicitly frame the workflow as exploitation and show a completed price-manipulation scenario. Guardrails exist later, so the concern is dual-use rather than clear malicious intent.
RISK-002 High
Credential Attack Automation Guidance
The Intruder section includes credential testing, full brute force wording, and username and password payload sets. This can support password attacks without strict limits.
The skill directly names credential testing and full brute force, then provides sample credential payload sets. It also includes authorization guardrails, which lowers confidence from critical.

Remediation

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

  1. FIX-001
    High
    Dual-use exploit examples
    Add a permission checklist and frame exploit walkthroughs as authorized lab or staging tests only.
  2. FIX-002
    High
    Credential attack guidance
    Replace brute-force examples with controlled test-account validation and explicit lockout-safe limits.
  3. FIX-003
    Medium
    Sensitive payload examples
    Use harmless sentinel values where possible and mark sensitive file and command payloads as lab-only.
  4. FIX-004
    Medium
    Scope enforcement
    Require written authorization, target scope, rate limits, and escalation contacts before scans or Intruder use.

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.

Audit attestation: not_attestable
