Openapi Docs Generator

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a documentation-help skill for OpenAPI and Swagger work, with some sloppy broad trigger wording but no artifact-backed harmful behavior.

Reasonable to install if you want help with OpenAPI or Swagger documentation. Be aware it may activate on broad API documentation wording, so invoke a more specific skill manually if you need unrelated backend help.

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

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The trigger phrases are generic and malformed enough that the skill could activate on loosely related user requests, causing unintended routing or invocation. In an agent system, overly broad activation increases the chance of context confusion, inappropriate tool selection, and accidental exposure of internal skill behavior when a narrower skill should have handled the request.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The trigger phrases are broad and loosely scoped, so the skill may activate for generic software, API, or documentation requests that were not intended to invoke this specific workflow. In an agent system, overbroad activation can cause inappropriate tool/skill selection, unnecessary exposure of user context to the skill, and increased attack surface for prompt-routing manipulation.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category

Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The manifest description says to use the skill when a user 'needs a practical workflow, artifact, checklist, analysis, or implementation support,' which is a very broad activation condition that overlaps with many ordinary engineering requests. It does not clearly constrain when the skill should activate beyond a loose topic list, increasing the risk of unintended invocation.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The example triggers use broad phrases like 'Help me' and 'I need a practical workflow,' which are common everyday requests and not specific enough to this skill. The examples also appear truncated and do not provide clear positive or negative boundaries for activation.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The skill description uses a broad set of user intents and keywords to determine applicability, which increases the chance of accidental invocation outside the intended OpenAPI/Swagger documentation use case. Overbroad routing can cause the wrong skill to handle unrelated prompts, producing misleading guidance or causing prompt-scope confusion across the agent.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The trigger keyword list includes broad phrases such as 'software-and-data' and general API-related terminology that can match many ordinary requests. This makes unintentional activation more likely, which can misroute conversations and expand the skill's operational scope beyond what the author likely intended.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The example trigger phrases are written as generic help-seeking sentences, which are likely to overlap with normal user language. If the router relies on these patterns, the skill may be selected for routine requests that only loosely resemble the intended domain, reducing reliability and potentially interfering with more appropriate skills.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill enables implicit invocation, but the trigger scope is only broadly described through metadata and not constrained by explicit conditions. This can cause the agent to invoke the skill in unintended contexts, increasing the chance of prompt-scope expansion, accidental data exposure to the skill, or user confusion about when specialized behavior is being applied.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The trigger phrases are so broad and awkwardly templated that they can match ordinary user language or partial requests unrelated to explicit invocation of this skill. That increases the chance of accidental activation, causing the agent to apply this skill in the wrong context and potentially override more appropriate routing or expose internal workflow behavior unexpectedly.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
79% confidence
Finding

The natural-language description lists English and Chinese instruction and guide files, but does not state how the user's preferred language is selected or whether language choice is optional. This can create a locale-policy concern if the skill defaults users into a language without explicit opt-in.
