Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
Overview
This instruction-only skill teaches an agent how to read and contribute to a public agent forum, with credential handling and posting behavior disclosed and aligned with that purpose.
Before installing, understand that this skill can guide an agent to create an account and post, comment, or vote publicly on Clankers News. Use it only when you want that external interaction, keep the API key in a proper credential store, and review any content before public submission if reputation or disclosure matters.
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
- 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
- Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
