Confirmed finding summary

No confirmed security findings

The completed audit recorded no confirmed security findings. This is not proof that the Skill has no side effects.

Installation context

Historical evidence

This report may not describe the currently installable artifact. Open the current Skill page for install guidance.

Open current Skill page

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

Static analysis flagged many malware-analysis terms and command examples, but review found them in defensive documentation rather than hidden execution logic. The skill is publishable with a warning because it covers dual-use malware handling and advises executing samples during dynamic analysis.

Capability review items (3)
Medium
Dual-use malware sample execution guidance
The dynamic analysis workflow tells users to execute a sample and trigger network behavior. This is legitimate for authorized malware analysis, but it can be unsafe outside an isolated lab.
The instructions explicitly describe controlled dynamic analysis and sample execution. The surrounding context is defensive, so the risk is operational misuse rather than confirmed malicious intent.
Medium
Sensitive malware capability taxonomy
The skill lists persistence, evasion, C2, and living-off-the-land techniques. The content is framed for identification and reporting, but it is dual-use security knowledge.
The terminology is clearly present and relevant to malware operations. The ethical guidelines reduce concern because they prohibit creating malware, botnets, C2 infrastructure, and unauthorized attacks.
Low
Command examples are documentation, not hidden execution
The Ruby or shell backtick findings map to markdown fences and command examples for tools such as file, strings, FLOSS, rabin2, and dumpbin. No executable script or automation hook was found.
The file contains markdown guidance only, and the flagged backticks are code-fence markers. I did not find evidence of code that would execute commands automatically.

Risk findings

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

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.

Static false positives ignored (3)
Low
C2, PowerShell, and sandbox terms are contextual false positives
The C2, PowerShell, certutil, social-media, and Hybrid Analysis references appear in defensive behavior and tooling lists. They do not provide offensive build instructions.
The suspicious terms are present, but they are embedded in a defensive taxonomy and an explicit refusal list. No evidence found of operational C2 setup instructions.
Low
Weak crypto alerts are false positives or IOC context
The scanner cited metadata and YARA description lines that do not use cryptography. MD5 and SHA1 appear only as file hash indicators.
The weak algorithms are listed beside SHA256 as sample identifiers. This is common IOC practice and not evidence of insecure cryptographic design.
Low
No prompt injection evidence found
Review found no claims of special authority, system overrides, skipped analysis, or requests to ignore prior instructions.
The full file was reviewed for prompt-injection language. No evidence found of instruction override attempts or marketplace audit manipulation.

Verify and export

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