| CRITICAL | Command Injection via `eval` of `gstack-slug` output The skill uses `eval` to execute the output of the `gstack-slug` binary. While `gstack-slug` is located within the skill's trusted directory, its output can be influenced by external, potentially untrusted data (e.g., a maliciously crafted Git repository name or environment variables). If `gstack-slug` outputs arbitrary shell commands due to such influence, `eval` will execute them, leading to a critical command injection vulnerability. This pattern is repeated in the 'Context Recovery' section. Avoid using `eval` with dynamically generated strings. If the output of `gstack-slug` is intended to set environment variables, parse it more safely (e.g., using `read` with specific variable names) or ensure the output is strictly sanitized to prevent any shell metacharacters or arbitrary commands. | LLM | SKILL.md:67 | |
| CRITICAL | Command Injection via `source` of `gstack-repo-mode` output The skill uses `source` to execute the output of the `gstack-repo-mode` binary. Similar to `eval`, `source` executes arbitrary shell commands. If the output of `gstack-repo-mode` can be influenced by untrusted data (e.g., a malicious `.git/config` file or environment variables), it could lead to a critical command injection vulnerability by executing arbitrary code. Avoid using `source` with dynamically generated strings. If the output of `gstack-repo-mode` is intended to set environment variables, parse it more safely or ensure the output is strictly sanitized to prevent any shell metacharacters or arbitrary commands. | LLM | SKILL.md:30 | |

| INFO | Discrepancy in Telemetry Data Collection Statement The skill's preamble explicitly logs the current Git repository name (`repo`) to a local file (`~/.gstack/analytics/skill-usage.jsonl`). However, the subsequent `AskUserQuestion` for telemetry states: 'No code, file paths, or repo names are ever sent.' This creates a discrepancy between the stated privacy policy and the actual local data collection. While the provided code does not explicitly show the `repo` name being exfiltrated by `gstack-telemetry-log`, the local collection contradicts the user-facing promise, potentially leading to a privacy concern if these logs are later transmitted. Align the telemetry data collection practices with the user-facing privacy statements. Either remove the local logging of repository names if they are truly not intended to be collected, or update the telemetry prompt to accurately reflect that repository names are collected locally (and clarify if/how they are used or transmitted). | LLM | SKILL.md:46 |
