Security audit

Podcast Launchpad

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a document-only podcast planning guide with no executable code, API use, persistence, or hidden high-impact behavior.

Installers should treat this as an English podcast launch checklist and advisory guide. It does not run code or connect to services, but users should independently verify current podcast platform submission rules before relying on directory guidance.

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
Findings (3)

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The acceptance criterion 'All content is English-primary' sets a fixed language policy in natural language. This can violate locale/language policy because it does not offer user opt-in or explain a justified regional constraint.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The trigger keywords are generic topical terms such as 'podcast', 'storytelling', and 'media-launch', which can cause the skill to activate in loosely related conversations rather than only when the user clearly intends to use this specific skill. In a document-only, non-executable skill this is primarily a scope and UX safety issue, but it can still lead to unintended invocation and inappropriate surfacing of the skill.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
82% confidence
Finding

The manifest sets the language to "en" with no indication that users may opt into other languages or that the skill is intentionally restricted to English for a documented reason. This can conflict with language/locale policy expectations when no user choice or justification is provided.
