Full Analysis
- [OBFUSCATION]: The skill documents and utilizes several techniques to hide malicious commands and keywords. Specifically,
PYTHON_SANDBOX_ESCAPE.mdcontains an execution chain using Base64:eval(base64.b64decode('X19pbXBvcnRfXygnb3MnKS5zeXN0ZW0oJ3NoJyk=')). It also provides instructions for constructing dangerous strings usingchr()values, hex escapes, and Unicode escapes to bypass static keyword filters. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill provides numerous methods to execute arbitrary shell commands on the underlying system. Examples include
os.system('sh'),subprocess.Popen(['sh']), and using Lua's FFI to callsystem("sh"). Additionally, it includes a comprehensive list of restricted shell (rbash) escapes using common utilities likevi,awk, andfind. - [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: The skill relies on and teaches the use of dynamic code execution functions to bypass security controls. This includes extensive use of
eval()andexec()in Python,loadstring()in Lua, and the manipulation of PythonCodeTypeobjects to execute arbitrary bytecode directly. - [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: The skill documents methods to transition from restricted environments to host access. This includes 'Double Chroot' escape techniques, namespace escape techniques (e.g.,
unshare,nsenter) to access host resources from a container, and browser sandbox escape vectors targeting Mojo IPC. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The skill provides instructions for accessing sensitive local files through non-standard interfaces, such as reading
/etc/passwdusingpathlib,codecs, orlinecache. It also includes payload examples for exfiltrating sensitive data to an external server (http://attacker/) viacurlandsendfile. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill uses 'AI LOAD INSTRUCTION' and an 'Expert Attack Playbook' persona to frame dangerous activities as expected behavior, encouraging the agent to act as an attacker capable of bypassing security filters and restrictions.
