Math Slop

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a small local math-meme generator and does not show hidden data access, network use, persistence, or unsafe behavior.

This appears safe for its stated purpose. Before installing, verify the package identity because the README install command does not match the skill name, and expect it to run a local Node script that prints generated LaTeX formulas.

Vulnerability Patterns

Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs

Vague Triggers

Medium

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 95% confidence
Finding: The description activates on a broad prompt condition like 'when someone asks for math slop,' which is loosely constrained and may cause the agent to invoke this skill in unintended contexts. While not directly enabling code execution or data exfiltration, overly broad triggering can increase misfires, prompt-routing confusion, and inappropriate activation in unrelated conversations.
