Security audit

Python Plus

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a Python reference skill with illustrative code examples and no evidence of hidden execution, persistence, or data collection.

Installers should treat the HTTP snippets as examples and adapt them carefully for real endpoints, especially when handling secrets or personal data. No evidence was found that this skill runs code, persists changes, or collects data on its own.

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
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.

Finding

This markdown skill file contains async examples using aiohttp.ClientSession() and session.get(...), which demonstrate making external network requests. The surrounding skill description does not include any warning or disclosure that examples may contact remote services or transmit data, which is relevant under the markdown-specific missing-warning criterion.
