ARTA: Agentic Real-Time Awareness

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed in-memory session-awareness helper, but it can reveal other active session metadata if installed in a shared or multi-user agent.

Install only for agents where cross-session awareness is intended. In shared or multi-user deployments, add authorization and redaction so one user cannot learn another user's channel, identity, or task details unless that disclosure is explicitly allowed.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The example explicitly instructs the agent to reveal other active sessions' channels and tasks to the current user, creating a cross-session privacy and information-segregation failure. Even though this is presented as sample code in a template, it normalizes unauthorized disclosure of operational metadata that could expose user identities, communication endpoints, and sensitive work context.

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The natural-language behavior guidance tells the agent to answer 'What are you doing elsewhere?' by disclosing other channels and tasks, which leaks information across unrelated conversations. In multi-user or multi-channel deployments, this can reveal sensitive activities, relationships, and internal routing details to unauthorized users.
