Security audit

unified security auditor

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a security-review guidance skill with disclosed, purpose-aligned behavior and no embedded execution or hidden data movement.

Install this if you want an assistant to apply security-review checks during security-sensitive coding or audits. Prefer explicit prompts when invoking it, and confirm where audit reports should be written so generated Markdown files do not surprise you in a repository.

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

  • Rogue AgentSelf-Modification, Session Persistence
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger

Findings (15)

Session Persistence

Medium
Category
Rogue Agent
Confidence
60% confidence
Finding

Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.

OpenClaw

Workspace-local (recommended for a single project/agent):

bash
mkdir -p ./skills
cp -R ./unified-security ./skills/

Skill Enumeration

Medium
Category
Agent Snooping
Confidence
85% confidence
Finding

Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The top-level description is broad enough to activate the skill across many common coding tasks involving auth, input, databases, deployment, dependencies, or AI workflows. Overbroad triggering can cause an agent to apply this skill in contexts the user did not intend, increasing the chance of unnecessary invasive analysis or follow-on actions such as file modification recommendations.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The "Use When" section enumerates many broad scenarios without constraints, negative examples, or a requirement for user opt-in. In an autonomous agent ecosystem, this can make the skill trigger too aggressively and expand the agent's scope into security auditing behavior that may not match the task, increasing the risk of over-collection, noisy findings, or unintended workflow changes.

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The skill explicitly instructs the agent to save an audit report into the project folder, which adds file-write behavior beyond pure analysis guidance. In an agent setting, even benign autonomous writes can create unwanted workspace modifications, overwrite user files, or normalize side effects without explicit user approval.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The instruction to save a markdown report into the project folder lacks any warning that this will modify the workspace or any requirement to confirm with the user first. In agent environments, silent writes are risky because they can surprise users, pollute repositories, or create compliance issues when generated artifacts are added without review.

Scope Creep

Low
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
70% confidence
Finding

Skill's behavior or capabilities extend beyond its stated purpose. Scope creep allows an agent to perform actions unrelated to its documented functionality, increasing the attack surface.
