Security audit
Prometheus Alert Designer
Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
Overview
This skill is a plain Markdown guide for designing Prometheus alerts and does not include hidden execution, persistence, or unrelated data access.
Review generated alert and routing rules before deployment, especially receiver targets and paging severity, because bad monitoring configuration can create noisy or missed alerts. Provide only the Prometheus, Grafana, or Alertmanager access needed for the specific review or design task.
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
- 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
- Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
