Trust Assessment
totally-legit-skill received a trust score of 10/100, placing it in the Untrusted category. This skill has significant security findings that require attention before use in production.
SkillShield's automated analysis identified 10 findings: 8 critical, 2 high, 0 medium, and 0 low severity. Key findings include Arbitrary command execution, File read + network send exfiltration, Remote code execution: curl/wget pipe to shell.
The analysis covered 4 layers: Manifest Analysis, Static Code Analysis, Dependency Graph, LLM Behavioral Safety. The LLM Behavioral Safety layer scored lowest at 0/100, indicating areas for improvement.
Last analyzed on February 14, 2026 (commit 13146e6a). SkillShield performs automated 4-layer security analysis on AI skills and MCP servers.
Layer Breakdown
Behavioral Risk Signals
Security Findings10
| Severity | Finding | Layer | Location | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CRITICAL | Arbitrary command execution Remote code download piped to interpreter Review all shell execution calls. Ensure commands are static (not built from user input), use absolute paths, and are strictly necessary. Prefer library APIs over shell commands. | Manifest | skills/orlyjamie/catch-me-if-you-can/maintenance.sh:5 | |
| CRITICAL | File read + network send exfiltration SSH key/config file access Remove access to sensitive files not required by the skill's stated purpose. SSH keys, cloud credentials, and browser data should never be read by skills unless explicitly part of their declared functionality. | Manifest | skills/orlyjamie/catch-me-if-you-can/maintenance.sh:11 | |
| 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/orlyjamie/catch-me-if-you-can/maintenance.sh:5 | |
| CRITICAL | Remote code execution: download then execute Detected a pattern that downloads a file and then executes it. This is a malware delivery vector. Never download and execute remote files without verification. | Static | skills/orlyjamie/catch-me-if-you-can/maintenance.sh:14 | |
| CRITICAL | Remote Code Execution via `curl | bash` The skill downloads and executes a script from a suspicious external domain (`evil.attacker.com`) without validation. This allows for arbitrary remote code execution, making the system vulnerable to any malicious payload the attacker hosts. Remove direct execution of remote scripts. If external scripts are necessary, implement strict validation, integrity checks (e.g., checksums), and execute them in a sandboxed environment. Prefer local, vetted scripts. | LLM | maintenance.sh:5 | |
| CRITICAL | Reverse Shell Connection The script attempts to establish a reverse shell connection to a hardcoded IP address (`10.0.0.1`) on port `4444`. This grants an attacker full interactive shell access to the system, allowing for complete compromise. Remove all reverse shell commands. Such functionality is a severe security risk and indicates malicious intent. Implement network egress filtering to prevent unauthorized outbound connections. | LLM | maintenance.sh:8 | |
| CRITICAL | Credential Exfiltration (SSH Private Key) The script reads the user's private SSH key (`~/.ssh/id_rsa`), encodes it in Base64, and then exfiltrates it to a remote server (`collector.bad.com`). This is a direct attempt to steal sensitive credentials, enabling unauthorized access to other systems. Remove all code that attempts to read and transmit sensitive files like SSH keys. Implement strict data loss prevention (DLP) measures and monitor network traffic for suspicious exfiltration attempts. | LLM | maintenance.sh:11 | |
| CRITICAL | Keylogger Installation The script initiates a keylogger using the `script` command, recording all terminal input and output to `/tmp/.keylog`. This captures sensitive user keystrokes, including passwords, commands, and other confidential information. Remove all keylogging functionality. This is a highly malicious activity. Implement system monitoring to detect and prevent unauthorized recording of user input. | LLM | maintenance.sh:17 | |
| HIGH | Sensitive path access: SSH key/config Access to SSH key/config path detected: '~/.ssh/id_rsa'. This may indicate credential theft. Verify that access to this sensitive path is justified and declared. | Static | skills/orlyjamie/catch-me-if-you-can/maintenance.sh:11 | |
| HIGH | Malware Download and Execution (Cryptominer) The script downloads an executable (`miner`) from a suspicious external domain (`xmrig.com`), makes it executable, and then runs it. This is a common pattern for installing cryptocurrency miners or other malware, leading to resource abuse and potential system instability. Remove all code that downloads and executes untrusted binaries from external sources. Implement application whitelisting and ensure all software is sourced from trusted repositories with integrity checks. | LLM | maintenance.sh:14 |
