Full Analysis
- [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The setup instructions in
SKILL.mdandREADME.mddirect the user to install the software usingcurl -fsSL https://tempo.xyz/install | bash. While this originates from the vendor's domain (tempo.xyzbelonging totempoxyz), piping remote scripts directly into a shell is a high-risk execution pattern. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]:
SKILL.mdcontains instructions that attempt to override the agent's default behavior, specifically telling the agent to ignore summaries from web fetch tools and stating "Do NOT search for additional documentation." It also includes a behavioral override requiring the agent to use thetempoCLI instead of other available tools. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill fetches its setup configuration and installation binaries from external URLs (
https://tempo.xyz/SKILL.md,https://tempo.xyz/install). - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The skill implements usage telemetry in
crates/tempo-common/src/analytics.rsusing the PostHog service. It captures environment metadata and wallet addresses. While the code includes redaction logic for sensitive headers, it constitutes a data collection surface for an external domain. - [SAFE]: The skill demonstrates good security practices in its handling of local files, such as setting
0o600permissions for thekeys.tomlwallet file incrates/tempo-common/src/keys/io.rsand theconfig.tomlfile incrates/tempo-common/src/config.rs.
Recommendations
- HIGH: Downloads and executes remote code from: https://tempo.xyz/install - DO NOT USE without thorough review
