SchoolFit

• Outcome: Review
• Latest audit: Sep 16, 2026 · 8:47 AM UTC
• Version: 1.3.0

Overview

This SchoolFit skill is mostly coherent, but it needs review because its handling of private search text and access codes is weaker than the documentation promises.

Review before installing. Use it only if you are comfortable sending school-search preferences and a SchoolFit session access code to schoolfit.hk. Do not include student names, home addresses, report-card text, private documents, or other identifying family details, because the automatic privacy filter is incomplete. Treat the sfhk_ access code as private session material.

A.I.G

Vulnerability Patterns

• Insecure Skill Coding Practices: Finds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
• Skill Instruction Hijacking: Alters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
• Agent Memory Poisoning: Writes attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
• Remote Payload Retrieval and Execution: Fetches external code whose behavior can change after review
• Embedded Malicious Code: Ships malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally

Technical Analysis

The make_url() function validates the initial URL and restricts it to HTTPS requests under schoolfit.hk. However, the subsequent use of urllib.request.urlopen() enables automatic redirect processing.

The request includes the user-provided SchoolFit access code in the custom X-SchoolFit-Skill-Code header. The implementation does not install a restrictive redirect handler, revalidate each redirect destination, or explicitly remove sensitive headers whe ...[truncated 1651 chars]

Remediation

Remediation Suggestions

1. Disable automatic redirects for credential-bearing API requests and handle redirect responses explicitly.
2. If redirects are operationally required, validate every destination before following it:
   • Require the https scheme.
   • Require the normalized hostname to be exactly schoolfit.hk.
   • Reject user information, custom ports, fragments, and unexpected paths.
   • Limit the number of redirects.
3. Never forward X-SchoolFit-Skill-Code, X-SchoolFit-Skill-Trace-Id, or other authorization-related headers when the origin changes.
4. Consider rejecting all cross-origin redirects rather than attempting to sanitize them.
5. Add automated tests covering:
   • Same-origin redirects.
   • Cross-origin redirects.
   • HTTPS-to-HTTP redirects.
   • Redirect loops.
   • Redirects containing user information or nonstandard ports.
   • Verification that credential headers never reach a different origin.
6. Prefer a narrowly configured HTTP client or custom urllib.request.HTTPRedirectHandler that enforces these policies centrally.

Privacy Gate Does Not Detect All Personal Data Types Claimed by the Skill

Vulnerability Type: Incomplete sensitive-data validation before network transmission
Risk Level: Medium

Vulnerable Code

python

def detect_personal_input(args: argparse.Namespace) -> list[dict[str, str]]:
    findings: list[dict[str, str]] = []
    for field, text in command_text_fields(args).items():
        cleaned = SKILL_CODE_RE.sub("", text)
        checks = [
            ("hkid", HKID_RE),
            ("phone", HK_PHONE_RE),
            ("email", EMAIL_RE),
        ]
        for label, pattern in checks:
            if label == "phone" and is_school_contact_lookup_text(cleaned):
                continue
            if pattern.search(cleaned):
                findings.append({"field": field, "type": label})
    return findings

The main execution path relies on this limited detection result before enabling remote API calls:

python

    personal_findings = detect_personal_input(args)
    if personal_findings:
        return privacy_warning_output(command, trace_id, personal_findings)

    off_topic_findings = detect_off_topic_input(args)
    if off_topic_findings:
        return off_topic_boundary_output(command, trace_id, off_topic_findings)

After the gate, user-controlled query and profile fields are transmitted to the API, for example:

python

    if command == "search-schools":
        payload = robust_school_search(api, args)
    elif command == "advisor-search":
        params = build_advisor_search_params(args)
        payload = api("GET", "/api/skill/search-advisor", params=params)

Technical Analysis

The privacy gate examines user-controlled text fields but detects only three categories:

• HKID-like identifiers
• Hong Kong telephone numbe ...[truncated 2629 chars]

Remediation

Remediation Suggestions

1. Replace broad free-form transmission with an allowlisted structured schema wherever practical. Send only fields necessary for school selection, such as district, school stage, language preference, commute, funding preference, grade, and support needs.
2. Expand the privacy gate to detect explicitly labeled personal data, including:
   • Full-name labels and common introduction patterns.
   • Hong Kong address markers and address-like structures.
   • Report-card tables, grades tied to an identified student, and document-derived text.
   • School-internal student numbers and document identifiers.
3. Treat notes, input_json, and student_profile_json as high-risk fields. Recursively inspect JSON values rather than relying only on the raw serialized string.
4. Remove or redact disallowed keys before transmission, even if detection does not block the whole request.
5. Apply strict length and content limits to all free-form fields.
6. Show a clear network-transmission confirmation immediately before sending free-form query text.
7. Revise the documentation to describe automated personal-data detection as best-effort unless comprehensive enforcement is implemented.
8. Add regression tests demonstrating that names, addresses, document excerpts, HKIDs, phone numbers, emails, and mixed-language personal-data patterns are blocked before activation and API dispatch.
9. Ensure blocked requests produce no query telemetry or other network request containing the rejected content.

YARA rule 'agent_skill_prompt_injection_hidden_instructions': Prompt injection or hidden instructions embedded in AI agent skill text [agent_skills]

High

• Category: YARA Match
• Confidence: 80% confidence

Finding

The skill embeds extensive downstream-facing 'llmBrief' and 'agentHandoff' instruction payloads throughout its outputs. In an agent ecosystem, these hidden instruction blocks can become a prompt-injection surface if a consuming model treats tool output as authoritative instructions, potentially overriding system/developer intent or causing unsafe behavior such as external browsing, policy leakage attempts, or mishandling of sensitive access codes.
