Security audit

Sovereign Cognitive Integrity Kernel

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This self-audit skill needs review because it requests private reasoning or prompt history for audit receipts without clear safeguards for sensitive content.

Before use, restrict audits to user-selected visible outputs and brief decision summaries. Exclude private reasoning, hidden instructions, secrets, and unrelated history; redact receipts and approve any transfer to the optional attestation skill.

A.I.G

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

Finding

The workflow explicitly requests capture of the agent's internal reasoning trace (line 45), then asks for divergence summaries with specific examples and reviewable receipts (lines 49–51 and 89). This creates a path for protected reasoning or sensitive prompt-history content to leak into outputs, although no actual access to hidden reasoning is demonstrated. The self-audit purpose, local-only claims, and advisory corrections reduce some risks but do not prevent disclosure through receipts or downstream attestation.
