File Placement

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill only gives file-placement guidance for documentation and scripts, with no executable code or hidden data access, though its activation scope is broad and project-specific.

Install this mainly for the specific project whose docs and scripts should follow these directory rules. In other repositories, the broad trigger and strict wording could place files somewhere unexpected, so disable or narrow it if you do not want global Markdown and shell-script placement guidance.

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

Finding

The skill's trigger conditions are very broad, covering common activities like creating any .md file, organizing documentation, writing guides or reports, and adding utility scripts. This can cause the skill to activate in many unrelated contexts, letting it override or steer normal agent behavior too aggressively and potentially causing unintended file operations or policy conflicts across a wide range of tasks.
