Risk Level: MEDIUMCOMMAND_EXECUTIONPROMPT_INJECTION
Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill uses the
Bashtool to runpandocfor document conversion. The command template provided,pandoc "FOLDER/tmp.md" -o "FOLDER/{original-filename}-review.doc", directly interpolates the manuscript's filename. If a manuscript has a malicious filename containing shell metacharacters (e.g.,;,&&, or backticks), it could lead to arbitrary command execution when the conversion step is triggered. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes untrusted manuscripts and supporting files, making it vulnerable to indirect prompt injection where an attacker embeds instructions within a paper to manipulate the agent's behavior.
- Ingestion points: Reads manuscript files (
main.tex,*.pdf) and secondary.texfiles in subfolders using theReadandGlobtools. - Boundary markers: Absent. The instructions do not specify any delimiters or warnings for the agent to ignore instructions embedded within the processed text.
- Capability inventory: The skill has access to powerful tools including
Bash,Write, andRead, which could be exploited if an injection attack is successful. - Sanitization: None. The skill does not perform any validation or filtering of the text extracted from the manuscript before using it to generate the report and editor letter.
