Security audit

Qa Analyst

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill coherently provides a QA career-roadmap API integration, but users should treat submitted career details and identifiers as data sent to an external service.

Install only if you are comfortable sending the assessment details you provide, including experience, skills, goals, session identifiers, timestamps, and optional user IDs, to the referenced third-party API. Avoid submitting unnecessary personal or sensitive information unless the provider's privacy and retention practices are acceptable for your use case.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The skill explicitly collects and transmits user assessment and tracking data such as experience history, goals, session identifiers, timestamps, and optional user IDs, but provides no privacy notice, retention policy, minimization guidance, or handling constraints. This creates a real privacy and compliance risk because users or integrators may send personally identifiable or sensitive career-profile data to a third-party service without informed consent or clear safeguards.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Confidence
74% confidence
Finding

The skill references an external API endpoint, meaning user-supplied assessment data is intended to be transmitted outside the local environment to a third-party domain. External transmission is not inherently malicious, but in this context it increases risk because the transmitted payload includes user profiling and tracking fields and the skill does not document security, trust boundaries, or data protection expectations for that remote service.

Vague Triggers

Low
Category

Confidence
82% confidence
Finding

This is a manifest/config file, so vague-trigger review applies. The description 'Generate personalized QA analyst roadmap' states the action but provides no constraints, trigger scope, or exclusion conditions, which can lead to overly broad invocation matching in systems that rely on manifest descriptions for routing.
