Highest confirmed finding severity

High

1 confirmed security finding requires 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 26 backtick alerts are Markdown formatting, while the example URL, local workflow path, and scoped GITHUB_TOKEN are benign template constructs. The AWS example promotes long-lived cloud credentials, and mutable third-party action references create a high-confidence CI supply-chain risk. Replace static AWS keys and pin actions before publication.

Capability review items (2)
High
SKILL.md:158
AWS credential environment variables
aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
The deployment template instructs users to authenticate AWS with a long-lived access key stored in GitHub Secrets. Compromise or accidental exposure grants persistent cloud access.
High
SKILL.md:159
AWS credential environment variables
aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
The template passes a long-lived AWS secret key to a third-party action. An OIDC role would avoid storing persistent cloud credentials in the repository.

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 High
SKILL.md:77SKILL.md:284SKILL.md:297SKILL.md:328
Mutable Third-Party Actions Create Supply-Chain Risk
The templates execute third-party actions through mutable version and master references. A compromised upstream ref could run attacker-controlled code with workflow tokens or secrets.
The cited lines directly use third-party actions with mutable refs, including two master refs. GitHub Actions resolves those refs to changeable upstream code.

Remediation

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

  1. FIX-001
    High
    The Kubernetes deployment example authenticates with long-lived AWS access keys.
    Use GitHub OIDC with a restricted AWS role, grant id-token permission, and remove both static access-key inputs.
  2. FIX-002
    High
    Third-party actions use mutable major-version and master references.
    Pin every third-party action to a reviewed full commit SHA and maintain those pins with automated dependency updates.
