Apple Notes

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This Apple Notes skill is purpose-aligned and disclosed, but users should remember it can read and change private notes when invoked.

Install only if you want the agent to operate on Apple Notes through macOS Automation. Review proposed searches, edits, folder creation, moves, and especially deletions before approving actions involving sensitive or important notes.

A.I.G

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 recommended folder names are all in Chinese, which implicitly pushes a specific language choice for note organization. The file does not indicate that this is optional, user-preference-based, or limited to a justified region-specific context.
