Pipeworx tle

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple satellite TLE lookup integration that discloses its external service and does not request local data or privileged access.

Before installing, confirm you are comfortable sending satellite lookup inputs such as NORAD IDs or search terms to the disclosed Pipeworx gateway, and avoid putting secrets or personal data into tool arguments.

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
