Time Awareness

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill only adds time-awareness instructions so an agent checks the current date before answering relative-time or current-events questions.

Before installing, understand that this skill will make the agent check the current date for relative-time and current-events questions. That behavior is consistent with its purpose and does not appear to add risky execution or data access.

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 markdown includes Chinese relative-time examples ("最近", "过去N天", "接下来一周") alongside English examples, but nowhere states whether the skill is multilingual by design or whether language handling is optional. Because policy findings here concern language/locale constraints in natural-language instructions, this mixed but unexplained language-specific guidance can create an implicit locale expectation without user opt-in.
