Agent Contact Card

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is a coherent markdown-only guide for agent contact cards, but it should be reviewed because it tells agents to trust remote card prose and try live webhook POSTs without enough consent or data-scope guardrails.

Install only if you are comfortable with agents fetching remote contact-card files and potentially contacting external endpoints. Before using it, treat fetched card text as untrusted, do not let it override your instructions, avoid sending personal or conversation data, and require a visible destination and payload confirmation before any webhook POST.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • 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

Finding

The skill explicitly encourages testing against a live third-party webhook endpoint and then sending POST requests, but it provides no warning about sharing prompts, metadata, or other potentially sensitive user or agent information with an external service. In an agent environment, this can lead to unintended disclosure of private data, logging by the remote service, or triggering actions on infrastructure outside the user's control.
