Crisis Communication

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple crisis-communication writing skill with overly broad business wording but no hidden execution, persistence, credential use, or data exfiltration behavior.

Review the output as professional communications guidance, not legal or regulatory advice. Provide only the crisis context and documents needed for the communication task, and remove confidential, personal, or legally sensitive details unless they are necessary.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • 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

Finding

The skill description, capabilities, use cases, and input instructions are generic and expansive, which makes it unclear when the skill should be invoked versus other skills. In an agentic environment, this can cause over-selection, prompting users or orchestrators to send arbitrary business data or unrelated tasks to this skill, increasing the risk of inappropriate data exposure, poor routing, and misuse of outputs in sensitive crisis scenarios.
