Google Sheets

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

Spreadsheet changes require approval, but missing-software setup directs the agent to execute downloaded code without separate approval or integrity verification.

Review the setup behavior before installing. Approve and verify the CLI installation separately rather than allowing a spreadsheet request to trigger downloaded-code execution. OOMOL mediates spreadsheet access, so review the connected account's permissions and retain the skill's write/delete approvals. The bundled instructions were fully inspected; external installer and connector code were not verified.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • 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
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
Vulnerability Patterns

  • Output HandlingUnvalidated Output Injection, Cross-Context Output, Unbounded Output

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Category
MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The supplied chunk executes a remote installer rather than implementing the declared Google Sheets operations. Although dependency installation can be a supporting implementation detail, the supplied material establishes no connection between this installer and the declared functionality. The remote script's contents and any additional effects cannot be determined from this chunk.

External Script Fetching

High
Category
Supply Chain
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The command pipes a mutable remote script directly into Bash without pinning or independently verifying its contents; the PowerShell alternative uses the same download-and-execute pattern. Compromise of the installation endpoint or its delivery infrastructure could execute arbitrary code with the agent process's local privileges, exposing accessible files and credentials. The endpoint is relevant to a legitimate dependency and execution is conditional, but neither fact establishes the integrity of the downloaded code.

The fallback setup executes downloaded installer scripts without warning the user about remote code execution and local system changes.

Medium
Category
Output Handling
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The fallback instructs the agent to install software after a missing-command error without requiring consent for local code execution or system changes. A request to operate on spreadsheets does not necessarily authorize software installation, and the write-confirmation rules only explicitly cover Google Sheets changes. Conditional execution reduces exposure, and strict enforcement of the declared oo-only tool permission may block these commands, but the setup instructions themselves lack an authorization gate.

Autonomous Decision Making

Medium
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
80% confidence
Finding

Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
