Security audit
portal-news-triage
Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk
Overview
This skill is a clearly scoped news-research helper that uses a disclosed read-only external news portal and does not include local code execution or hidden persistence.
Install this only if you are comfortable sending news-search topics and retrieval requests to the Chinng AI-Agent Portal MCP endpoint. Treat portal metadata as a research aid, verify important claims against original source links, and note that the standalone MCP registration persists in your client configuration until removed.
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
