Competitor Price Monitor

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward competitor price-monitoring workflow that discloses scraping, scheduled checks, alerts, and stored baselines.

Before installing, confirm that the competitor sites you monitor allow automated collection, choose a reasonable check frequency, and decide how long baseline snapshots and reports should be retained.

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
  • 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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Missing User Warnings

Finding
The skill explicitly performs recurring web scraping and stores baseline snapshots of third-party pages, but it does not warn users about these ongoing collection and storage behaviors. This can lead to uninformed use, unexpected retention of scraped content, and potential compliance or terms-of-service issues if operators deploy it without understanding the data handling involved.
