Full Analysis
- [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: The skill utilizes root SSH access to perform deployment and monitoring operations on target servers.
- [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: The
scripts/create_container.shscript deploys containers using the--privilegedflag and mounts several host system paths (e.g.,/usr/local/Ascend/driver,/var/log/npu), providing deep access to the host hardware and system logs. - [PERSISTENCE]: The skill creates
cronjobs via the platform'scrontool to maintain persistent background monitoring of deployed services. - [PERSISTENCE]: Documentation suggests establishing persistent access by appending public keys to the target server's
~/.ssh/authorized_keysfile. - [CREDENTIALS_UNSAFE]: The skill processes and manages sensitive information, including user-provided SSH passwords and authentication tokens for external notification services.
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: Shell scripts within the skill use
evalto run dynamically generated commands, both locally and remotely via SSH. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The monitoring script sends status updates and log content to an external endpoint (
http://xiaoluban.rnd.huawei.com:80/) using a configured authentication token. - [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: Automated monitoring is performed through a
cronmechanism that triggersagentTurnpayloads, allowing instructions to be executed in background sessions. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill reads logs from the remote server which are then incorporated into agent instructions via the monitoring system, presenting a surface for untrusted data to influence agent behavior.
- Ingestion points: logs read via
docker exec <container> tail -50 <LOG_PATH>in SKILL.md and troubleshooting.md - Boundary markers: absent
- Capability inventory: SSH execution, docker exec, eval in bash scripts, and cron task generation
- Sanitization: absent
Recommendations
- AI detected serious security threats
