Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward academic-paper summarizer with no hidden execution, persistence, credential use, or unrelated data access.

Install this if you want help summarizing academic papers, but review summaries against the original paper for accuracy, especially statistics and limitations.

A.I.G

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

Finding

Output size or generation rate is not bounded. Unbounded output enables denial-of-service through resource exhaustion, log flooding, or context-window stuffing.

2. **Identify the paper type** — empirical study, review/meta-analysis, or
   methods/theory paper — and tailor the emphasis of the output.
3. **Fill the output template below.** Pull exact numbers from the text; never
   invent statistics. Write "not reported" for anything the paper omits.
4. **Define domain terms** using `references/domain-glossary.md` so a lay
   reader can follow the summary.
