Security audit

Asana

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed Asana integration that reads and updates Asana work items through an OAuth-scoped MCP connection, with user confirmation required for significant task changes.

Install this only if you want the agent to access your connected Asana account. It can read Asana work data and perform requested updates, so review confirmations carefully before allowing task creation, movement, or completion.

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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • 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

Autonomous Decision Making

Medium
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
80% confidence
Finding

Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.

## Credential Setup

The OAuth token is injected automatically via `$env:ASANA_MCP_OAUTH_TOKEN` when the user has connected their Asana account through Maverick. Tokens are issued by Asana's MCP app and are scoped to the MCP server only. Never ask the user for a token directly.

## Workflow

Static analysis

No suspicious patterns detected.
