Hot News Aggregator 1.0.0

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward news aggregation prompt that asks the agent to search public news sources and summarize results.

Before installing, understand that the skill will use web search or fetch tools to collect public news from the listed sources. For military or breaking news, treat summaries as a starting point and verify important claims against primary or authoritative sources.

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
