Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed learning-workflow skill that guides users through a structured 10-step study process without code execution, credential access, persistence, or hidden data handling.

Install this if you want a structured Chinese-language learning assistant. Expect it to steer broad learning or research requests into its 10-step workflow; no evidence was found of hidden code execution, credential access, persistence, or data exfiltration.

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

Finding

The trigger phrases are very broad and map to common user intents such as 'learn', 'research', or 'understand a topic', which can cause the skill to activate for a wide range of ordinary conversations. In a skill-routing system, this creates overreach and misrouting risk: the skill may intercept requests better handled by other specialized or safety-constrained skills, leading to inappropriate responses or bypass of intended routing boundaries.

Vague Triggers

Confidence

Finding

The activation logic says to start whenever the user mentions wanting to learn a topic, which is an ambiguous condition broad enough to match many everyday requests. Because this skill drives a structured multi-step process and can auto-chain dependent steps, accidental invocation could dominate conversations, create confusing user experiences, and interfere with safer or more context-appropriate skills.
