Security audit

Watch

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple local reference-doc tool; its main issue is a very generic name that could cause accidental invocation.

Install only if you want generic 'watch' reference snippets. Be aware the broad name may overlap with ordinary requests involving watching files, processes, or media, so check that the skill is being invoked for the intended devtools reference use.

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

Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.

Finding

The manifest uses the generic name and description "watch", which overlaps with common everyday language and does not define when the skill should be invoked versus ignored. The file also provides no explicit trigger phrases, scope constraints, or negative examples to narrow activation.
