Cold Flu Home Recovery Log

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a prompt-only illness logging skill with clear medical safety boundaries and no code, network, credentials, or persistence behavior.

Before installing, treat this as a health note-taking aid only. It may organize sensitive illness details you provide, but it does not diagnose, recommend treatment, or replace a clinician; seek urgent medical help for red flags or serious concerns.

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

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The acceptance criteria require all files and user-facing instructions to be English-only, which imposes a language policy without any opt-in or documented justification. This is a natural-language policy concern because it constrains language/locale rather than offering accommodation or user choice.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The manifest explicitly sets the skill language to "en", which is a natural-language locale restriction. Under the policy, forcing a specific language is a violation unless the skill offers a language choice or clearly documents why the locale constraint is necessary; this file does neither.

Vague Triggers

Low
Category

Confidence
85% confidence
Finding

The phrase "User asks for a cold, flu, fever, or short-term home illness log" mixes specific conditions with a broad category and does not define exclusions or negative examples. This could overlap with general health conversations where the user is not actually asking for a logging skill.
