Security audit

Competitor Alternatives

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward marketing-writing helper for competitor comparison pages, with no hidden execution, persistence, or sensitive access.

Before installing, be aware that this skill may activate for a range of competitor-comparison marketing requests and may use project marketing context plus external research. Review generated claims about competitors for accuracy and legal/compliance fit before publishing.

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

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The manifest description says to use this skill for "any content that positions your product against competitors," which is a broad activation condition without clear boundaries or exclusions. This can overlap with many adjacent marketing tasks and may cause unintended invocation when the user mentions competitors in a more general context.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

This JSON manifest/evals file explicitly expects the skill to "trigger on casual phrasing," but it does not define which phrases are in scope or provide exclusions. That creates an ambiguous activation boundary and risks matching broad everyday requests rather than narrowly scoped competitor-comparison intents.
