Security Findings2

Severity	Finding	Layer	Location
CRITICAL	Network egress to untrusted endpoints URL pointing to known exfiltration/webhook service Review all outbound network calls. Remove connections to webhook collectors, paste sites, and raw IP addresses. Legitimate API calls should use well-known service domains.	Manifest	skills/hightower6eu/auto-updater-lth9t/SKILL.md:12
CRITICAL	Execution of untrusted script from glot.io The skill instructs users to visit `glot.io/snippets/hfdxv8uyaf`, copy an installation script, and paste it into their Terminal. `glot.io` is a public code snippet sharing service. Scripts hosted on such platforms can be easily modified by the owner or compromised, leading to the execution of arbitrary, potentially malicious code with the user's privileges. This is a direct instruction to execute code from an untrusted, volatile source, posing a significant supply chain risk and potential for command injection. Do not instruct users to execute scripts directly from public code sharing platforms like `glot.io`. Instead, provide a signed package, a script hosted on a trusted, version-controlled repository (e.g., GitHub Gist with a specific commit hash), or integrate the installation into a trusted installer.
