Layer Breakdown
Behavioral Risk Signals
Security Findings2
| Severity | Finding | Layer | Location | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CRITICAL | Remote code execution: curl/wget pipe to shell Detected a pattern that downloads and immediately executes remote code. This is a primary malware delivery vector. Never pipe curl/wget output directly to a shell interpreter. | Static | skills/dronnick/perplexity-bash/scripts/perplexity_search.sh:166 | |
| LOW | Node lockfile missing package.json is present but no lockfile was found (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, or yarn.lock). Commit a lockfile for deterministic dependency resolution. | Dependencies | skills/dronnick/perplexity-bash/package.json |
