Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a coherent email campaign planning and QA guide with explicit approval gates for live or high-impact actions.

  • 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

Finding

The description says to use the skill when an agent needs to 'plan, review, implement, audit, or improve email work' and lists generic triggers like 'creative review' and 'campaign optimization.' These phrases are broad enough to overlap with routine marketing discussions, and the file does not provide exclusion conditions or negative examples to narrow invocation scope.
