Security audit

Aibrary 100

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple book-recommendation skill with no code execution, persistence, credential use, or hidden data access.

This appears safe to install as a reading-list helper. Be aware that generic prompts about must-read or essential books may invoke Aibrary's curated framework even when you wanted a broader, non-branded recommendation set.

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

Finding

The trigger phrases are broad enough to activate on generic requests like 'must-read books' or 'best books for the AI age,' which can cause the skill to intercept ordinary recommendation queries beyond its narrow intended use. This is not code-execution dangerous, but it can misroute user intent, reduce response quality, and create unnecessary overreach in agent behavior.
