Security audit

Fly.io

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward Fly.io command reference, but users should treat its deploy, secrets, scaling, shell, and machine-destroy commands as production-impacting operations.

Install only if you expect Codex to help administer Fly.io apps. Before allowing mutating commands, confirm the exact app name, environment, machine ID, and production impact, especially for secrets, scaling, SSH console, machine stop, and machine destroy operations.

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

Finding

The skill documents destructive and high-impact operational commands such as stopping or destroying machines, changing scale, modifying secrets, and opening interactive shells without any guidance to confirm user intent, verify the target app, or warn about production impact. In an agent setting, this increases the chance of accidental service disruption, configuration loss, or unauthorized changes because the commands are presented as routine actions with no safety guardrails.
