check-deps-vulnerabilities

check-deps-vulnerabilities is a skill for Claude Code from kirich1409/krozov-ai-tools. It costs 87 tokens per session (1,153 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A security-checking workflow for Gradle projects that scans production dependencies for known CVE and GHSA advisories. These are public records of software security flaws.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit Gradle dependencies, review vulnerability severity and fixes, and apply targeted version updates to affected libraries.
Why use it?
It identifies vulnerable libraries and connects them with safer upgrade versions, reducing the need to investigate advisories manually.

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

check-deps-vulnerabilities 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 10d 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.

Check Dependency Vulnerabilities

Scan the current Gradle project for known CVE/GHSA advisories on Gradle-resolved direct production dependencies and offer remediation through targeted version updates. Requires gradlew at the project root.

Step 1 — Collect coordinates via MCP (preferred)

Option A (full audit): call audit_project_dependencies with includeVulnerabilities: true and productionOnly: true (unless the user asks to include test scopes). Use the per-dependency vulnerabilities from the result.

Option B (vulns only):

  1. Call scan_project_dependencies with projectPath (default cwd).
  2. Keep production-scoped, versioned coordinates (exclude test configurations unless asked).
  3. Call get_dependency_vulnerabilities with those {groupId, artifactId, version} entries (and projectPath so Gradle plugin markers resolve to implementation GAVs).

Use the tool output fields as-is: id, summary, severity, fixedVersion, malicious, safeUpgrade, and resolvedImplementation when present. Do not re-derive severity/summary from a raw OSV querybatch response while the MCP tool works.

Step 2 — Build the report

Filter to dependencies with non-empty vulnerabilities.

Sort: CRITICAL → HIGH → MEDIUM → LOW → unknown, then lexicographic by groupId:artifactId.

Render a markdown table (one row per dependency × finding):

Source file Artifact Current Severity CVE/GHSA Summary Fixed in

Link advisories as https://osv.dev/vulnerability/{id}.

Summary line: Total: N findings across M packages (X critical, Y high, Z medium, W low). Scanned: K dependencies total. Test configurations excluded.

If none:

No known vulnerabilities found in production dependencies. (Scanned K dependencies. Test configurations were excluded.)

Then stop — no remediation prompt.

Disclaimer (always print once):

Note: OSV does not cover shaded/uber JARs. Dependencies bundled inside a fat JAR may carry CVEs that this scan will not surface.

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.

check-deps-vulnerabilities is a skill published in the GitHub repository kirich1409/krozov-ai-tools (22 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 87 tokens to every session and 1,153 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-01.
