Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a plain guidance skill for Meta ad planning and optimization, with no executable code, persistence, credential handling, or hidden behavior found.

Before installing, note that this skill may activate for a range of Meta advertising and tracking questions. It appears suitable for advisory campaign work, but users should still separately confirm platform rules, budget changes, account actions, and tracking/privacy requirements before acting on its recommendations.

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

Finding

The invocation description is broad enough to capture many generic Meta/Facebook/Instagram ads, pixel, targeting, and retargeting requests, which can cause the agent to route users into this skill even when a narrower or more appropriate skill would be better. Over-broad routing is a real security and reliability issue because it increases the chance of unintended tool use, mis-scoped advice, and bypass of more specialized controls or workflows.
