Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a markdown-only memory-palace design guide with broad triggers, but no hidden execution, credential access, persistence, or destructive behavior in the artifact.

Before installing, be aware that this skill may activate on generic words like memory or architecture. Treat it as reference guidance for memory palace planning; the advertised Python palace_manager.py workflow is not included in this artifact.

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 list includes broad, everyday terms such as "memory," "organization," "spatial," and "architecture," which can match many benign user requests unrelated to this skill’s narrow purpose. This can cause unintended invocation, increasing the chance the skill is loaded in irrelevant contexts and influencing agent behavior or exposing users to unnecessary tool guidance.
