Security audit

Acmesh

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple Acmesh reference skill that only prints static help text and does not access credentials, call the network, or persist changes.

Install only if you want a static Acmesh reference helper. It appears low risk, but the content is generic and should not be treated as authoritative operational security guidance without checking real Acmesh documentation.

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
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • 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
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Credential Access

High
Category
Privilege Escalation
Content
## Prerequisites
- Basic understanding of security concepts
- Required tools and access credentials
- System meeting minimum requirements

## Installation
Confidence
70% confidence
Finding
Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.

Vague Triggers

Low
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding
The description says 'Quick lookup for Acmesh concepts, best practices, and implementation patterns,' but does not explain how the skill is invoked or limit when it should activate. This broad phrasing could overlap with many general Acmesh-related requests and lacks negative examples or scope constraints.
