Learn Ansible

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a narrow LabEx Ansible course recommender that uses public catalog pages and does not request credentials, local files, persistence, or privileged actions.

Install this if you want LabEx-only Ansible learning recommendations. Treat its course suggestions and review language as platform-specific promotion, and use a broader search if you want neutral comparisons across training providers.

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
  • System Prompt LeakageDirect Leakage, Indirect Extraction, Tool-Based Exfiltration
  • 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

Finding

Skill contains instructions that could directly expose system prompts, internal rules, or hidden instructions to users or external parties.

Content

md
- User asks for Ansible labs on a topic in this path: recommend the most relevant public course labs you can derive from course expansion.
- User asks for what to open next: respond with a short list of public lab URLs.

## Output Rules

- Stay inside the Ansible learning path.
- Favor brief recommendations over long catalogs.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Confidence

Finding

The skill directs the agent to stay within the LabEx Ansible learning path and end with LabEx URLs, which constrains recommendations to one platform. This can be a natural-language policy concern if users are not given an option to choose other providers or a neutral recommendation scope.
