Kenya Tax Rates

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward usage guide for a Kenya payroll tax calculation npm package, with no hidden commands, persistence, credential access, or data collection in the inspected artifacts.

This appears safe to install as a documentation-style skill, but payroll and tax calculations can affect real financial decisions. Verify the npm package provenance and confirm the current Kenya tax rates before using outputs for live payroll or compliance work.

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
