Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple UX design guidance skill with no evidence of hidden execution, data access, persistence, or privileged behavior.

This skill is reasonable to install for general UX design help. Expect it may activate on a wide range of UX, UI, design-system, and component-architecture discussions; it does not appear to run code, access private data, install dependencies, or make persistent changes.

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 manifest description says 'Use when: user research, design process, design tools knowledge, ui design principles, component architecture,' which are generic subject areas rather than specific activation phrases or constraints. This can cause ambiguous matching because the file does not define when the skill should not activate or provide narrower trigger examples.
