Burnout Checkin

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple burnout self-check guide with clear disclaimers and no code, persistence, credential use, or external data access.

Before installing, understand that this is only a reflective burnout check-in, not a clinical diagnosis or substitute for professional care. It appears safe and low-risk from the inspected artifacts, but users in severe distress should seek appropriate human or emergency support rather than rely on the skill alone.

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

The file includes mandated Chinese-only example phrases under 'Avoid statements like' and 'Prefer wording like' without indicating that the assistant should match the user's language or offer a choice. This can violate language/locale policy by implicitly steering output into a specific language without user opt-in, especially when the skill also lists English triggers and descriptions.
