security-mobile-masvs

security-mobile-masvs is a skill for Codex from ashermahonin/agentic-skills. It costs 69 tokens per session (784 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review method for checking native iOS and Android apps against OWASP MASVS, a security standard for mobile applications, and relevant platform controls.

In plain words
What is it for?
Building a mobile attack-surface inventory and marking each security area Pass, Concern, Fail, or Out-of-scope with evidence and test commands.
Why use it?
It helps find security gaps in storage, authentication, networking, permissions, WebViews, deep links, signing, privacy, and third-party software before release.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

security-mobile-masvs scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Security: Mobile MASVS

Purpose

Review native iOS and Android security against the current OWASP MASVS requirements. Cover device storage, platform APIs, permissions, WebViews, signing, privacy, and the resilience controls justified by the threat model.

Scope and evidence

  1. Read references/masvs-checklist.md.
  2. Pull the platform matrix from platform-detector: iOS/Android versions, distribution channel, SDKs, backend/API dependencies, auth flow, and privacy region.
  3. Pull mobile architecture, permissions, deep links, local storage, crypto, networking, WebView usage, signing/notarization, and CI build artifacts. Read-only unless a fix has been assigned.
  4. Use Context7 MCP for current Apple, Android, OWASP MASVS/MASTG, app-store policy, SDK, and framework security guidance.

Assessment

  1. Build a mobile attack-surface inventory: storage, credentials, biometrics, network, IPC/deep links, WebViews, SDKs, telemetry, permissions, signing, update flow, and anti-tamper expectations.
  2. For each MASVS family, mark Pass, Concern, Fail, or Out-of-scope with evidence paths and test commands.
  3. Run platform-specific checks: Android manifest/exported components, cleartext traffic, backup policy, Play Integrity/signing; iOS entitlements, keychain access groups, ATS, associated domains, jailbreak assumptions.
  4. Cross-check backend/API findings with security-owasp-web, dependency findings with cve-zero-day-scanner, and secrets/signing keys with security-secrets.
  5. For Concern/Fail, name the exploit path, affected platform, blast radius, mitigation, owner, and verification test.
  6. Produce a release-gate verdict: Go, Conditional, or Hold.

Safety rules

  • Use Context7 MCP for current MASVS/MASTG, Apple, Android, store-policy, SDK, and framework security guidance.
  • Keep a decision trace: tested build, platform versions, store channel, source docs, evidence paths, skipped checks, and accepted risks.
  • Refuse to mark a MASVS family Pass without an evidence path and a verification step.
  • Escalate before release if credentials, payments, health data, child data, or production write paths are exposed on device.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
