Security audit

my integration v2

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a minimal integration-help template with broad wording but no hidden execution, persistence, credential use, or destructive behavior.

Installers should treat this as a starter template rather than a specialized integration skill; narrow the supported platforms and invocation criteria before relying on it in a production skill library.

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
  • 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

Self-Modification

High
Category
Rogue Agent
Confidence
85% confidence
Finding

Skill modifies its own code, configuration, or behavior at runtime. Self-modification enables an agent to escalate privileges, disable safety constraints, or install persistent backdoors.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill's activation guidance is very broad: 'Use this skill when a user needs help with integrations.' Because many ordinary requests could fit that description, the agent may invoke this skill in situations where a more specific or safer skill should handle the task. This can cause unintended routing and unreliable behavior, though the content itself is not directly harmful.

Vague Triggers

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
86% confidence
Finding

The example trigger 'Help me connect Service A to Service B' is phrased like common everyday user language, which increases the chance of accidental invocation based on broad keyword matching. In this skill, that mainly creates over-triggering and misrouting risk rather than direct security compromise, but it still weakens reliable skill selection.
