Security audit

matched-filtering

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a focused scientific-computing guide for matched filtering and does not show hidden, destructive, or data-stealing behavior.

Reasonable to install for gravitational-wave analysis work. Install the Python dependencies in a virtual environment or container, avoid running pip with administrator privileges, and pin package versions if you need reproducible or audited setups.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • 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
