Security audit

High Quality Info Sources

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a plain Markdown guide for curating reliable information sources and does not request unusual access or run code.

This is reasonable to install for source-list curation. Be aware it may activate for broad requests about trusted sources or watchlists, so review its output like any opinionated recommendation list.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Finding

The skill description is broad enough to match many ordinary requests about finding trusted sources, watchlists, filtering links, or monitoring topics. Overly broad routing can cause this skill to be invoked outside a narrowly intended scope, which increases the chance of inappropriate delegation, prompt-surface expansion, and unintended influence over general research workflows.
