Generate Product Hunt Launch Assets

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple Product Hunt launch content helper with some vague scope and unnecessary tool declarations, but no evidence of hidden execution, exfiltration, persistence, or destructive behavior.

Install only if you want help drafting Product Hunt launch materials. Review generated copy and images before publishing, and be cautious about granting Bash/Read access since the visible workflow does not clearly need shell execution.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • 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

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The skill description activates on very broad product-launch work without clear boundaries, which can cause an agent to invoke it in loosely related contexts and generate externally facing launch materials without sufficient user confirmation. In agent systems, ambiguous invocation criteria increase the chance of inappropriate automation, context leakage into marketing assets, or bypass of more specialized/restrictive skills.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The repeated 'Use When' guidance is similarly overbroad and lacks trigger constraints, making the skill eligible for routine startup or growth tasks that are not specifically about preparing Product Hunt launch deliverables. This raises the risk of accidental invocation, unnecessary use of APIs, and production of outward-facing content from incomplete or unsuitable context.
