translation

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a translation guidance skill with disclosed, low-impact behavior and no executable code or persistence.

Installers should know this skill may activate for broad translation or glossary-related requests and may read local project context files when present to tailor terminology and voice; review those context files if they contain sensitive business information.

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 description says to use the skill when the user wants to translate content, create translation workflows, manage terminology, or optimize translation quality, and also when they mention a long list of terms. Several triggers such as "translate," "translation," and "glossary" are common in many contexts, and the file does not provide exclusion conditions or negative examples to clarify when the skill should not activate.
