Files

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This file-organization skill requests powerful local file operations, but its behavior is disclosed, purpose-aligned, and includes meaningful safety controls.

Install only if you want the agent to help reorganize and mutate local files. Review proposed bulk moves or renames carefully, especially for large directories, and keep the undo/trash behavior enabled for recoverability.

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
  • Rogue AgentSelf-Modification, Session Persistence
  • 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

Session Persistence

Medium
Category
Rogue Agent
Confidence
60% confidence
Finding

Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.

## What This Skill Does (and Doesn't)

**YES:** Organize existing files, find duplicates, analyze disk usage, batch rename/move, clean up clutter
**NO:** Open files, create files/folders, copy files, extract archives, basic file browsing — use standard file operations for those

This is a power tool for reorganization, not a replacement for basic file commands.
