Ripgrep

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a straightforward ripgrep help skill with one bulk-replacement example users should handle carefully.

Install only if you want ripgrep command guidance. Review commands before running them, especially --hidden, --no-ignore, and the sed -i replacement pipeline, because those can search ignored/private files or modify many files in place.

A.I.G

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

Finding

The skill includes a pipeline that performs in-place edits via sed -i on files returned by rg -l, but it does not clearly warn that this command modifies files destructively. In an agent skill context, users may copy the example assuming it is only a preview or search workflow, which can lead to unintended bulk file modification across a repository.
