Security audit

AI crawler access check

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a narrow, read-only robots.txt checker for AI crawler access and does not show hidden, destructive, or credential-seeking behavior.

Before installing, understand that the skill will make network requests to the domain you ask it to check and may consult crawler documentation. It should not need accounts, API keys, private files, or permission to crawl beyond robots.txt.

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
This manifest allows implicit invocation at L10, but the file does not define any explicit trigger phrases, scope limits, or exclusion conditions. Combined with the broad natural-language prompt at L06, this creates ambiguity about when the skill should activate versus when similar everyday requests should not trigger it.
