Conference Poster Pitch

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple local pitch generator with no evidence of network access, persistence, credential use, or hidden high-impact behavior.

Before installing, note that this is a draft skill that runs a local Python script. Its documentation overstates file-system behavior by mentioning saved output files, but the inspected implementation only prints generated pitch text and does not access files or the network.

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

This markdown file states that Python/R scripts are executed locally and that output files are written to the workspace, but these potentially impactful behaviors appear only in the risk table rather than as an explicit user warning near the usage or overview sections. For a skill description, users should be clearly warned that running the skill executes local code and creates files.
