Daily Ai News

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward AI news briefing helper that searches and summarizes public web sources without hidden execution or persistence.

Installers should expect the skill to browse public AI news sites and search the web when asked for current AI updates. The main limitation is quality control: because triggers are broad, users may want to invoke it explicitly for news briefings and verify important news against the linked original sources.

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

Vague Triggers

Finding

The phrases "wanting to know what's happening in AI" and requests for "AI industry news, trends, or breakthroughs" are broad conversational intents that could overlap with many ordinary AI discussions, not just requests for a news briefing. The file does not provide exclusion conditions or negative examples to clarify when the skill should not activate.

Finding

The file includes Chinese trigger phrases as explicit activation examples, but does not state whether multilingual handling is optional, user-selected, or how language should be chosen in responses. Under the policy, language or locale constraints should be offered as a choice or clearly documented and justified.
