Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple Product Hunt launch-planning skill with no code execution, persistence, or hidden data movement.

Install this if you want Product Hunt launch assistance. Be aware that it may activate on broad Product Hunt-related words, and it may use existing project-context files to draft public launch content, so review generated copy before publishing.

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 trigger description is broad enough to activate on casual mentions of Product Hunt terms such as 'upvotes' or 'hunter' even when the user is not asking for launch support. This can cause the agent to invoke the skill inappropriately, leading to irrelevant guidance, context confusion, and possible over-collection or misuse of project context if the skill reads local context files automatically.
