Security audit

Competitor Intel

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill performs ordinary competitive research using public web sources and a simple local formatting script, with no hidden persistence or destructive behavior found.

Installers should treat this as a public-source competitive research helper. Avoid using it for private, deceptive, credentialed, or unauthorized monitoring, and review its outputs for source quality and currentness.

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
  • MCP Least PrivilegeUnderdeclared Capability, Wildcard Permission, Missing Permission Declaration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access

MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding
The skill references local repository resources such as `scripts/build_matrix.py` and files under `references/`, which implies file-read capability, but it does not declare any explicit tool scope or permissions boundary. That creates ambiguity about what filesystem access the agent may assume, increasing the risk of over-broad file access or unintended data exposure if the runtime grants more access than necessary.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The trigger language is very broad and includes phrases like 'competitive research,' 'market landscape,' and especially 'spy on competitors,' which can cause the skill to activate for a wide range of ambiguous requests. Overbroad activation increases the chance the skill is invoked in contexts involving unethical intelligence gathering, policy-sensitive surveillance requests, or irrelevant tasks where it may steer the agent toward unnecessary external collection and analysis.
