Full Analysis
- [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: The skill explicitly instructs the agent to re-run commands with escalated permissions if a
runtime_access_deniederror is encountered. This encourages the agent to acquire higher system privileges to bypass security restrictions. - [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: The instructions direct the agent to load a 'version-matched guide' by executing
ORCA skills get orca-per-workspace-env. This pattern causes the agent to retrieve and execute new instructions from an external source at runtime, which are not present in the skill's static files. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill facilitates the execution of local CLI tools (
orca,orca-ide,orca-dev) based on the session environment. While these are vendor-provided tools, they are used to perform the dynamic instruction loading and environmental setup. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill has a vulnerability surface where it ingests untrusted data from an external command output to use as further instructions. * Ingestion points: The output of the
ORCA skills getcommand is used as a guide for subsequent session steps. * Boundary markers: The skill does not define specific delimiters or instructions to ignore potential commands embedded in the fetched guide. * Capability inventory: The agent is granted the capability to execute shell commands via the ORCA executable. * Sanitization: There is no evidence of sanitization or validation performed on the content fetched from the CLI tool before the agent processes it as instructions.
