Full Analysis
  • [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The meta-skill generator clones the Application Security Testing Handbook from the official Trail of Bits GitHub repository (https://github.com/trailofbits/testing-handbook) to analyze documentation structure and extract content for skill generation.
  • [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The generation methodology in testing-handbook-generator/ involves processing data from the external handbook and summarized content from referenced web resources to create new skill instructions. This architecture presents an indirect prompt injection surface (Category 8).
  • Ingestion points: The skill ingests data via repository cloning in discovery.md and fetches external resource content via WebFetch in agent-prompt.md.
  • Boundary markers: While the agent prompt provides structure for generation, it lacks explicit delimiters or instructions to ignore embedded commands within the processed external data.
  • Capability inventory: The toolkit possesses the capability to write generated skill files to the local file system and execute validation scripts.
  • Sanitization: No specific sanitization or instruction filtering is implemented for the content retrieved from external URLs.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill includes a Python script (scripts/validate-skills.py) to verify the integrity and structure of generated skills. Furthermore, the toolkit provides the agent with extensive instructions and command-line patterns for executing common security tools such as libFuzzer, AFL++, and Semgrep.
