Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The scanners rate this skill benign with high confidence: all three reported findings are considered expected for its purpose, though the instruction-scope dimension is noted for broad activation triggers.

The verdict is benign, not a guarantee of no risk. Skillspector reported broad activation instructions and a configuration-path reference, while the other scanner completed without findings; the reported scan covered all three listed components.

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

Finding

Skill reads from agent configuration directories (.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/). These directories may contain API keys, personal settings, and other credentials that the skill has no legitimate need to access.

Finding

L529 specifies "Use when starting any conversation," making ordinary greetings and unrelated requests activation conditions. The entry does not limit this trigger to skill discovery or another specific workflow.
