Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill references the
scapylibrary, which is a well-known and industry-standard tool for network packet manipulation available through official package registries. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The documentation clearly notes that root or administrator privileges are required for operations such as sniffing or sending raw packets. This is a functional requirement for low-level network interactions using the Scapy library.
- [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes untrusted data from external pcap files, creating a surface for indirect prompt injection. 1. Ingestion point:
rdpcap()inagent.pyreads network traffic. 2. Boundary markers: None. 3. Capability inventory: The script writes a JSON report and prints results to stdout. 4. Sanitization: Basic UTF-8 decoding is applied to extracted DNS fields, but no injection-specific filtering is performed.
