Traffic Impact Analysis Report Drafter

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This Markdown-only drafting skill is purpose-aligned for traffic impact reports and does not add code, persistence, credentials, or hidden execution.

This appears safe to install for drafting TIA/TIS reports, with the main caveat that a licensed engineer must verify the work and users outside the U.S. should state the applicable country or agency framework before using it.

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 instructions state "U.S. agency practice by default" and only support international equivalents when the user explicitly names the framework. This imposes a locale-specific default rather than first offering a locale/framework choice, which can conflict with language/locale policy expectations.
