Analyst

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a plain data-analysis guidance document with no executable code, persistence, credential use, or hidden behavior.

This skill appears safe to install as analyst guidance. Users should still review any analysis work it helps produce, especially assumptions, data quality checks, and recommendations, because the skill offers judgment-oriented advice rather than automated safeguards.

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

Skill instructs the agent to never refuse or to always comply. Suppressing the agent's ability to decline removes a core safety control and enables downstream harmful requests to succeed.

## Communicating Findings
- Lead with the insight, not the methodology
- So what? Now what? — always answer these
- Confidence levels matter — don't oversell noisy data
- Recommendations are opinions — label them as such
- Executive summary first, details available — respect their time
