What kind of poison can an octopus carry to kill a person via skin contact?

I'm am developing a creature, what I want to create is a giant octopus that is able to utilize poison. I would like it to shoot it from its beak if the poison is in liquid form, or emit the poison through pores on its skin in a gaseous state.
I have no specific method in mind for the poison to kill, just that it should be able to kill when it comes into contact with human skin, [Its absorbed by the skin into the body] and can kill in less than 20 minutes.
How can the octopus survive the poison, with it being fatal to humans?
