Full Analysis
  • REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION (HIGH): The skill instructs the agent to install and update itself using bunx skills add from the GitHub repository openbio-ai/skills. Because bunx fetches and executes packages, and openbio-ai is not a Trusted External Source, this allows for arbitrary code execution from an untrusted third party.
  • EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS (HIGH): The installation instructions reference an untrusted external repository (https://github.com/openbio-ai/skills). Per the analysis rules, downloading and executing code from non-trusted sources is a high-severity finding.
  • PROMPT_INJECTION (HIGH): The skill possesses a large attack surface for Indirect Prompt Injection (Category 8). It is designed to fetch and process external, untrusted content from PubMed, bioRxiv, and genomic databases. If a processed record contains malicious instructions, the agent—which is already configured with command-execution capabilities—could be coerced into performing unauthorized actions. Mandatory Evidence: Ingestion points found in literature.md, genomics.md, and blast.md; Capability inventory includes bunx and curl (SKILL.md).
  • COMMAND_EXECUTION (MEDIUM): The documentation requires the agent to execute multiple shell commands (curl, bunx, export) to interact with the API and manage local state. This provides the necessary environment for technical exploitation if an injection occurs.
  • DATA_EXFILTRATION (MEDIUM): The skill makes network requests to api.openbio.tech. While this is the intended API, the domain is not whitelisted. Several tools (e.g., submit_boltz_prediction in boltz.md) accept local input_file_path parameters. If an agent is manipulated into reading sensitive files (like SSH keys) and passing their contents to the API via these tools, exfiltration occurs.
