Adaptive Suite

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is not overtly malicious, but it combines very broad assistant behavior with an API key, external AI-service routing, and local/NAS metadata scanning without enough user-control or data-handling limits.

Review this before installing. Only use it in environments where sharing task context with SkillBoss API Hub is acceptable, avoid pointing it at sensitive NAS shares or private workspaces unless you have clear consent, and prefer explicit confirmation before any external API call or metadata scan.

A.I.G

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

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The skill is defined with a very broad, multi-domain scope and no clear trigger boundaries, which increases the chance it will be invoked in contexts far beyond its stated purpose. In practice, that broad authority expands the attack surface and can cause the agent to apply networked or sensitive behaviors, such as external API usage or filesystem-oriented guidance, when a narrower skill would be safer.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill declares a required API key but provides no disclosure about how credentials are used, what data may be sent externally, or what third-party service receives requests. This creates a real risk of silent credential-backed outbound access and unintentional transmission of user or workspace data to an external provider.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The instructions explicitly direct use of an external endpoint to access many downstream AI services and tools, but they do not define data-handling limits or consent requirements. Because the skill is broadly scoped and adaptive, user prompts, code, business data, or file metadata could be routed to third-party infrastructure without sufficient transparency or restriction.
