Security audit

Mighty Router

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed workflow router, but it broadly takes over the agent's task handling and response format whenever it is loaded.

Install only if you intentionally want this skill to govern coding, audit, research, verification, and high-risk edit workflows across a session. Be aware that it may reformat answers, block or require commands, and let a workspace .mightyrc or .mighty.json affect risk classification.

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
