Pilot Task Chain

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward template for chaining tasks between agents, with expected data passing but no hidden execution, persistence, or credential handling found.

Install only if you intend to use pilotctl for multi-agent workflows. Treat any intermediate task result as potentially sensitive, and only pass it to agents or endpoints you trust after redacting secrets, personal data, or proprietary content.

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

Finding

The skill explicitly chains task results between multiple external agents and demonstrates fetching, transforming, and storing data without any warning about sensitivity, minimization, consent, or trust boundaries. This can cause unintended disclosure of secrets, personal data, or proprietary content because intermediate results are forwarded wholesale to other agents and potentially off-host services.

Data Exfiltration
Confidence
50% confidence
Finding

Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.
