Full Analysis
  • Indirect Prompt Injection (MEDIUM): The skill is designed to ingest and process arbitrary content from Reddit. This external data is untrusted and could contain malicious instructions designed to manipulate the agent (Tool Output Poisoning).\n
  • Ingestion points: Reddit posts and comments retrieved via the semantic search and trends endpoints.\n
  • Boundary markers: Absent; no delimiters or instructions to ignore embedded commands are visible in the documentation.\n
  • Capability inventory: The skill utilizes curl for network requests and python3 for data processing, providing a surface for command-based activities.\n
  • Sanitization: No sanitization or filtering of the retrieved Reddit content is demonstrated.\n- External Downloads (MEDIUM): Installation instructions use npx skills add to download the skill from an untrusted external repository (lignertys/reddit-research-skills).\n- Command Execution (LOW): The skill's implementation patterns rely on shell-based commands (curl) and piped python3 -c snippets, which increase the potential attack surface.\n- Data Exfiltration (LOW): The skill performs network operations to reddapi.dev. While this is the intended service, it is a non-whitelisted third-party domain that represents an external communication channel.
