Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a coherent local Agent firewall skill, but its documented enforcement logic can fail open while asking for read/exec authority and making unclear data-flow claims.

Review this before installing as a security control. Treat the prompt-injection phrases and destructive-command strings as test examples, but do not rely on this skill as an enforcement boundary unless the fail-open logic is fixed, blocked paths are enforced, callbacks are removed or explicitly consented to, and read/exec authority is tightly scoped.

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

Technical Analysis

The filter records unknown tools and path-traversal parameters as HIGH-severity violations, but its final enforcement decision blocks only CRITICAL findings. Consequently, the documented tool allowlist is not an effective authorization boundary.

An unlisted tool produces an unauthorized_tool ...[truncated 1575 chars]

Remediation
View remediation

Remediation Suggestions

  • Block every unauthorized tool and every path-traversal finding, regardless of severity metadata.

  • Use a default-deny decision such as:

    python
    should_block = bool(violations)
    

    Alternatively, explicitly classify unauthorized_tool and path_traversal as blocking findings.

  • Resolve filesystem paths with a canonicalization function before validation.

  • Enforce explicit allowed root directories using canonical path containment checks.

  • Resolve and validate symbolic links before file access.

  • Reject unknown parameter schemas rather than converting arbitrary values to strings.

  • Add regression tests confirming that unlisted tools and traversal paths always return should_block=True.

  • Ensure the execution layer independently enforces the allowlist instead of relying solely on this advisory filter.

Sensitive-File Policy Is Not Enforced During Tool Calls

Content
View full analysis

Vulnerability Details

File Location: SKILL.md, lines 105-222; references/detail.md, lines 38-43 and 119-121
Vulnerability Type: Incomplete security-policy integration
Risk Level: High

Vulnerable Code

The policy declares sensitive paths:

python
POLICIES = {
    "max_input_length": 10000,
    "max_tool_calls_per_session": 50,
    "allowed_file_extensions": [".txt", ".md", ".json", ".csv", ".py", ".js"],
    "blocked_paths": ["/etc/shadow", "/etc/passwd", "/root/.ssh", "/.env"],
    "rate_limit_per_minute": 30,
}

However, the tool-call wrapper only invokes the general tool filter:

python
def protect_tool_call(self, tool_name, params):
    result = self.tool_filter.check_tool_call(tool_name, params)
    if result["should_block"]:
        return {
            "action": "BLOCK",
            "reason": "Dangerous tool call",
            "violations": result["violations"]
        }

    return {
        "action": "ALLOW",
        "params": result.get("filtered_params", params)
    }

The referenced implementation explicitly tests a sensitive path through the tool filter:

python
result = filter.check_tool_call("read_file", {"path": "/etc/passwd"})
print(f"Safe call: {result['should_block']}")

Technical Analysis

SecurityPolicyChecker defines blocked filesystem paths, but AgentFirewall.protect_tool_call never invokes check_file_access. It only invokes ToolCallFilter.check_tool_call.

read_file is present in the tool allowlist, while /etc/passwd does not match the tool filter's command-destruction patterns and does not contain a traversal sequence. The filter can therefore return should_block=False for direct access to a path explicitly prohibited by the declared policy.

The sensitive-path policy is consequently disconnected from the execution path where it is needed.

Remediation
View remediation

Remediation Suggestions

  • Call SecurityPolicyChecker.check_file_access for every path-bearing tool parameter before returning ALLOW.
  • Prefer an allowlist of approved workspace roots over a short sensitive-path blocklist.
  • Canonicalize paths with realpath or an equivalent API before comparison.
  • Reject paths that resolve outside approved roots.
  • Validate symlink targets and guard against time-of-check/time-of-use races.
  • Apply file-extension rules only after canonicalization; do not treat extension checks as a substitute for path authorization.
  • Run file tools under a restricted operating-system account or sandbox with access only to required directories.
  • Add tests for /etc/passwd, .env, SSH directories, alternate path forms, and symlink-based bypasses.

    "findings": findings,
    "sanitized_input": self._sanitize(user_input) if should_block else user_input
}

Technical Analysis

Detected role-hijacking and system-prompt disclosure attempts are assigned HIGH severity. However, all findings below CRITICAL receive only the FLAG action.

Because should_block is derived exclusively from findings whose action is BLOCK, an input containing only a prompt-disclosure or role-hijacking pattern remains allowed. The result also sets sanitized_input to the original user_input whenever blocking is false.

The integration shown in SKILL.md forwards that unchanged value to the protected Agent. ...[truncated 1488 chars]

Remediation
View remediation

Remediation Suggestions

  • Treat system-prompt disclosure and role-hijacking findings as blocking by default.
  • Define enforcement independently from display severity, for example with an explicit block property on every rule.
  • Never forward the original input when a high-risk finding is detected.
  • If review is required, quarantine the input and require explicit approval instead of returning ALLOW.
  • Keep untrusted input clearly separated from system instructions and tool-control messages.
  • Add tests proving that every HIGH and CRITICAL disclosure or role-hijacking pattern is blocked or safely quarantined.
  • Document that regex matching is only one defense layer and can be bypassed through paraphrasing, obfuscation, multilingual input, or multi-turn attacks.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The documented callback_url introduces an external notification/data egress path that contradicts the skill's stated role as a local firewall layer. In a security tool, undocumented or weakly justified outbound communication can leak scanned inputs, detection results, or metadata to third parties and undermine user trust.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

A callback capability is not justified by the advertised local firewall function and creates an outbound network primitive in a tool that may process sensitive prompts and tool parameters. Attackers or misconfigured deployments could abuse this to exfiltrate blocked content, findings, or user data.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

Claiming create/query/export operations in an input-sanitization capability expands the apparent functional scope beyond the declared firewall purpose. This kind of interface drift can cause over-privileged integrations or unexpected data handling paths that are risky in a security-sensitive component.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Category

Finding

The security policy checker also advertises create/query/export operations unrelated to simple policy validation, indicating unnecessary capability expansion. For a defensive skill, extra operational verbs increase ambiguity and the chance of unsafe orchestration by the hosting agent.
