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

Finding

The skill's trigger list includes very broad, everyday phrases such as 'how to', 'can I', 'setup', 'configure', and 'failed to', which can match a large share of ordinary user requests. This can cause unintended activation and over-broad routing, increasing the chance that the skill intercepts unrelated conversations, influences decisions outside its intended scope, or suppresses more appropriate skills.
