Pilot Model Share

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward model-sharing helper, but its example checksum verification should not be treated as strong model authenticity validation.

Install only if you already trust the Pilot Protocol setup and the peers you will exchange models with. Do not rely on the included MD5 checksum snippet as proof that a model came from a trusted source; use authenticated metadata or signatures and prefer safer model formats when receiving files from others.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • 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

&2 exit 1 fi if [ "$EXPECTED_CHECKSUM" != "$ACTUAL_CHECKSUM" ]; then echo "Model verification failed" >&2 exit 1 fi echo "Model verified" ``` 6. Treat model formats capable of carrying executable or serialized code as untrusted even after integrity verification. Load them in a sandbox with minimal filesystem, network, and credential access, and prefer non-executable formats such as SafeTensors where applicable. ]]>
