Devops Automation Pack

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is not malicious, but it advertises production DevOps automation without the actual supporting scripts or safety guardrails users would need.

Review carefully before installing or using this skill. It appears to be an incomplete DevOps package rather than malware, but do not let an agent run or invent production deployment, CI/CD, monitoring, backup, or recovery commands from it without explicit review, environment targeting, rollback plans, and least-privilege credentials.

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
  • 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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

The skill advertises deployment, monitoring, backup, and recovery automation that can make consequential changes to infrastructure, but it provides no warning, approval step, rollback guidance, or scope limitations. In an agent setting, this increases the chance that a user or downstream system invokes high-impact operations without understanding the operational risk, potentially causing outages, data loss, or unintended production changes.
