Caveat verdict

🟢 Trusted
No high-risk patterns surfaced by the deep scan — automated capability review, not behavioral proof.

Accesses credentials AND makes external network calls

Security attestation skill downloading GitHub release artifacts and verifying against a hardcoded public key SHA256; legitimate supply-chain integrity check.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. Caveat flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.

What it does

These are capability combinations: each listed behavior occurs in the skill, but Caveat detects co-occurrence — it does not verify that one flows into another. Read the code to confirm a live chain.

Capability combination high

Accesses credentials AND makes external network calls — potential credential theft

LLM02 · ASI03

Capability combination high

Accesses credentials AND encodes data — may obfuscate stolen credentials

LLM02 · ASI03 · ASI04

Permission integrity

Makes network requests but does not declare curl/wget in required binaries

network_out

Code accesses API keys/tokens but declares no environment variables

credential_access

Findings (3)

Pattern match medium

apt-get install — installs system packages

test/hermes_attestation_sandbox_regression.sh · prose · downgraded · apt-get install

Pattern match medium

HTTP request to bare IP address — common in malicious payloads

test/hermes_attestation_sandbox_regression.sh · prose · downgraded · http://127.0.0.1

Pattern match low

Python os.environ.get — reads environment variable

Why the tier is capped

Execution sink present in raw bytes (Hard Floor: class B). Final tier capped at Caution — cannot be lifted by any downgrade, example-payload opt-in, or allowlist.

Permissions & capabilities

No declared permissions — minimal attack surface.
