Ops Tasks

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward local task tracker that stores task-board data on the user's machine.

Install this only if you are comfortable keeping task titles, owners, due dates, statuses, and notes in a local file at ~/.ops-commander/tasks.json. Avoid putting highly sensitive operational details in notes unless your local machine and backups are appropriate for that data.

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
  • 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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding
The skill explicitly stores task data in a persistent JSON file under the user's home directory without any notice, consent, retention guidance, or sensitivity boundaries. Even if intended for normal functionality, this can cause users to unknowingly retain operational details, owner names, notes, and due dates on disk where other local users, backups, or unrelated tools may access them.
