Security audit

Dagster Pipeline Analyzer

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a plain Markdown guide for reviewing Dagster projects and does not contain hidden execution, persistence, or data export behavior.

Install only if you want an agent to inspect Dagster project code and configuration for review purposes. When using it, provide the specific project path you want analyzed, because the examples involve local file discovery within that path.

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 skill’s trigger and description are broad enough to activate on many generic Dagster- or pipeline-related prompts without clear scoping boundaries. Over-broad activation can cause the wrong skill to engage, increasing the chance of unintended file inspection, command suggestion, or analysis of sensitive project paths in contexts where the user did not explicitly request this specialized behavior.
