com-interface-analysis

A Windows security analysis tool for COM servers and their interfaces. COM is a Windows system that lets programs expose functions to other programs, and the tool uses extracted data about those servers, permissions, and privileges.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing COM attack surfaces, looking up CLSIDs, examining interface methods and permissions, finding possible privilege-escalation or UAC-bypass paths, and viewing pseudo-IDL definitions.
Why use it?
It helps identify which COM components can be reached, elevated, or misconfigured across different caller and server privilege levels.

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

com-interface-analysis 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 7 executable files (scripts/_common.py, scripts/audit_com_security.py, scripts/classify_com_entrypoints.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

COM Interface Analysis

Purpose

Query and analyze COM (Component Object Model) server registrations extracted from Windows system binaries. Uses pre-built extraction data that maps every binary to its COM CLSIDs, interface methods, pseudo-IDL definitions, SDDL permissions, service identities, elevation flags, and activation types. The unique value is privilege-boundary risk scoring and elevation/UAC analysis across four access contexts defined by caller integrity level and server process privilege.

When to Use

  • Enumerate COM servers and interfaces in a module
  • Look up a CLSID to find its hosting binary and security properties
  • Map the COM attack surface ranked by privilege-boundary risk
  • Find privilege escalation targets (medium-IL caller to SYSTEM server)
  • Identify UAC bypass candidates (CanElevate/AutoElevation servers)
  • Classify COM entry points by semantic category
  • Audit COM server security (permissions, elevation, marshalling, DCOM)
  • Confirm decompiled functions are COM entry points
  • View pseudo-IDL interface definitions

When NOT to Use

  • General function explanation -- use re-analyst
  • COM interface reconstruction from vtable patterns in decompiled code -- use com-interface-reconstruction
  • WinRT server analysis -- use winrt-interface-analysis
  • RPC interface analysis -- use rpc-interface-analysis
  • Non-COM attack surface mapping -- use map-attack-surface

Data Sources

  • COM index (helpers/com_index.py): Singleton loaded from config/assets/com_data/ across four access contexts.
  • Access contexts (caller IL x server privilege):
    • extracted_high_il/all_servers -- high-IL caller, elevated + regular processes
    • extracted_high_il/privileged_servers -- high-IL caller, privileged processes (SYSTEM/high)
    • extracted_medium_il/medium_il/all_servers -- medium-IL caller, elevated + regular processes
    • extracted_medium_il/medium_il/privileged_servers -- medium-IL caller, privileged processes (SYSTEM/high)
  • Per-context file: com_servers.json (binary-keyed; contains server metadata, interfaces, methods, pseudo-IDL, typelib interfaces, and procedure lists per binary).

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.

com-interface-analysis is a skill published in the GitHub repository marcosd4h/DeepExtractRuntime (20 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 81 tokens to every session and 1,983 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 2026-08-30.
