159 charsno explicit “when” trigger
Intermediate

Key capabilities

  • Identify open source security risks
  • Assess dependency vulnerability impact
  • Find remediation steps for OSS issues
  • Query vulnerability types and categories

How it works

The skill uses a structured knowledge base derived from the OWASP OSS Top 10 to provide machine-readable references for identifying and fixing dependency-related security risks.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Dependency list or vulnerability identifier
You get back
Risk assessment and remediation checklist

When to use oss-vulnerabilities

  • Identifying unmaintained dependencies
  • Assessing risk of dependency confusion attacks
  • Checking for outdated software
  • Remediating security vulnerabilities

About this skill

OSS Vulnerabilities — Skill Entry

This SKILL.md is the entrypoint for the OSS Vulnerabilities skill.

The skill encodes the OWASP Open Source Software Top 10 as structured, machine-readable references that an agent can query to identify, assess, and remediate risks associated with open source software dependencies.

When not to use it

  • Proprietary software vulnerability assessment
  • General network security auditing

Limitations

  • Limited to OWASP OSS Top 10 vulnerability types
  • Requires manual dependency input

How it compares

It provides a standardized, agent-consumable framework for OSS-specific risks rather than generic vulnerability scanning.
