Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a marketing guidance skill for employee-generated content, with no code execution, persistence, credential use, or hidden high-impact behavior.

Installers should understand that the skill may read existing project-context files to tailor marketing advice, but it does not install code, change files, use credentials, or perform actions outside normal advisory content generation.

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

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The manifest says to use the skill when the user wants to 'plan, implement, or optimize' employee-generated content or employee advocacy, which is a wide activation condition without clear boundaries or exclusions. Although some specific phrases are listed, the opening trigger language is broad enough to create overlap with many general marketing discussions and may cause unintended invocation.
