Dusk Ascension — Ethereal Product Hero Shots

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple image-generation style prompt skill with ordinary, disclosed installation instructions and no hidden execution or data access behavior.

Before installing, understand that this skill will persist as an available OpenClaw image style until removed, and it is tailored to a specific dusk/ethereal aesthetic. I found no evidence that it runs code, accesses private data, or changes system behavior beyond normal skill installation.

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

Session Persistence

Medium
Category
Rogue Agent
Confidence
60% confidence
Finding

Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
