Tax Planning

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a Markdown-only educational tax planning guide for solopreneurs, with no code execution, persistence, credential use, or hidden data access.

Before relying on this skill, treat it as general education rather than tax advice. Verify current IRS and state rules, especially rates and deadlines, and consult a CPA for your jurisdiction and business structure. The broad triggers may make it appear in general tax conversations, but the artifact shows no suspicious execution or data-access behavior.

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

Vague Triggers

95% confidence
Finding
The trigger list includes very broad phrases such as "taxes," "tax planning," and "reduce taxes," which are common in ordinary business conversations and can cause the skill to activate outside narrowly intended contexts. Over-broad activation is dangerous because it increases unsolicited invocation of tax guidance, which may crowd out better-matched skills and expose users to jurisdiction-specific financial advice in situations where the content may be incomplete or inapplicable.
