Caveat verdict

๐ŸŸ  Risky
Significant risk patterns flagged โ€” automated deep scan, not behavioral proof.

Reads local files AND makes external network calls

The skill instructs running `curl -fsSL https://portal.patrickbot.io/downloads/latest/install.sh | bash` to install a proprietary binary, executing arbitrary remote code from a third-party server as part of the installation workflow.

Automated static analysis โ€” 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 โ€” it does not verify that one flows into another. Read the code to confirm a live chain.

Capability combination critical

Reads local files AND makes external network calls โ€” the capabilities for data exfiltration co-occur (data-flow not verified)

Permission integrity

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

network_out

Performs file operations but does not declare file-accessing binaries

Why the tier is capped

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