Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a security skill usually runs scanners and checks websites.

Discovers and exploits mass assignment (autobinding) in REST APIs by injecting unexpected or hidden parameters (e.g. role, isAdmin, plan) into create/update requests, using Burp Suite Intruder, Arjun, and param-miner to find bindable fields on ORM-backed endpoints (Rails, Django, Laravel, Spring). Use when testing REST APIs for privilege escalation or authorization bypass via unintended parameter binding.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'exploiting-mass-assignment-in-rest-apis' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'exploiting-mass-assignment-in-rest-apis' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named exploiting-mass-assignment-in-rest-apis already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/mukul975/Anthropic-Cybersecurity-Skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '54a798831d2266a3ca61ce68a7acb80b81160d57' -- 'skills/exploiting-mass-assignment-in-rest-apis' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/exploiting-mass-assignment-in-rest-apis' ~/.agents/skills/'exploiting-mass-assignment-in-rest-apis' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'exploiting-mass-assignment-in-rest-apis' ~/.claude/skills/'exploiting-mass-assignment-in-rest-apis' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
