Security audit

Pilot Task Router

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill does what it says, but it can send task contents to discovered external agents without clear trust, privacy, or retry controls.

Review this skill carefully before installing. Use it only for tasks that are safe to disclose to discovered peers, avoid secrets or regulated data in task bodies, and prefer verified or allowlisted agent addresses for sensitive or side-effecting work.

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
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • 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 demonstrates submitting task content to a network-discovered external agent without any explicit privacy, trust, or data-handling warning. Users may paste sensitive prompts, data, or operational details into the task body, and the routing logic optimizes for score rather than trust boundaries, which can lead to unintended disclosure to third-party peers.

Finding

The fallback logic may submit the same task to multiple candidate agents, increasing the number of external parties that receive the task content. This materially expands confidentiality risk and can also create duplicate execution side effects if the task is not idempotent.

Missing User Warnings

Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The workflow example automatically discovers a peer and submits a task to it based on capability and polo score, but provides no warning that a discovered peer may be untrusted or outside the user's security boundary. In context, this makes accidental exfiltration of sensitive prompts or data more likely because the example appears to endorse automated routing as normal usage.
