Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed workflow guide for connecting research CLIs, with permissions that match its file, shell, install, and network-based purpose.

Before installing, review the external packages and pinned GitHub tag, prefer the pinned commands shown by the skill, and run the workflow in a project-specific environment because it can download data, execute CLIs, and create experiment/proof artifacts.

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
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

Skill requests more permissions than appear necessary for its stated functionality. Review if elevated access is justified.
