LOWMakefile/script pipes remote content to shell
SKILL.md:59
> **Automated by the Cargo installer.** Jobs 1 and 3 (refresh + session register/finalize) run on their own when the `SessionStart` + `Stop` + `SessionEnd` hooks scaffolded by `curl -fsSL https://api.getcargo.io/install.sh | sh` are present. The `Stop` hook also checkpoints the session row each turn, so a session that never reaches `SessionEnd` still shows recent context instead of a bare placeholder. Do these by hand only when the hooks aren't installed. Job 2 (reporting) is always your responWhy was this flagged?
A script or Makefile pipes content from a remote URL directly into a shell (curl | sh or wget | bash). This is inherently dangerous because the remote content can change at any time, and the command runs with the current user's permissions. Rated HIGH because it requires manual execution (unlike install hooks) but still executes arbitrary remote code.
