Google Sheets

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed Google Sheets management wrapper around the porteden CLI, with expected credential and spreadsheet access for that purpose.

Install only if you trust the porteden CLI source. Use a dedicated Google account or profile when practical, avoid broad Drive scopes unless needed, keep PE_API_KEY narrowly scoped, and manually confirm any share or delete operation.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally

Credential Access

High
Category
Privilege Escalation
Confidence
70% confidence
Finding

Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
