Security audit

Mr Scrna Research Planner

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a scoped biomedical research-planning prompt with no executable code, persistence, credential handling, or hidden data access.

Install only if you want help drafting computational MR plus scRNA study designs. Treat the output as research-planning support, not medical or clinical advice, and verify all biological claims, datasets, tool choices, and causal interpretations independently before relying on them.

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

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The trigger text is broad enough to capture generic requests like 'help me write a paper on X' whenever MR and scRNA are only loosely implied, which can cause the agent to over-invoke this skill outside its intended niche. In an agent system, overly broad routing can misdirect user requests, suppress better-matched skills, and produce domain-inappropriate outputs with misleading authority.
