Network Engineer

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward career-roadmap API wrapper, but users should know it sends professional profile details to an external service.

Before installing, assume assessment details, session identifiers, and any optional userId may be sent to the listed third-party API. Avoid submitting unnecessary personal or employer-sensitive information unless you are comfortable with the provider's data practices.

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
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

The skill explicitly requests user identifiers and detailed professional profile data, including career history, skills, goals, and timestamps, but provides no privacy notice, retention policy, minimization guidance, or explanation of how this personal data is handled. This creates a real privacy and compliance risk because consumers may transmit sensitive profiling data to a third-party service without informed consent or adequate safeguards.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding

The skill directs users to an external API endpoint, which means user-supplied assessment data is intended to leave the local environment and be transmitted to a third-party service. In this context, that is more dangerous because the transmitted payload includes detailed professional profiling data and identifiers, while the skill does not provide trust, privacy, or security assurances about the remote service.

Finding

The API schema explicitly accepts sessionId and optional userId fields, but the endpoint descriptions provide no privacy notice, retention guidance, or explanation of how identifying/session-linked data is handled. This creates a transparency and privacy-compliance gap that can lead users or integrators to send trackable personal data without informed consent or appropriate minimization.
