Full Analysis
- [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: The skill recommends using
sudo apt install k6inreferences/load-testing-with-k6.md. Commands requiring superuser access pose a risk of unauthorized system modifications and potential host compromise. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes output from external load testing tools, which presents a vulnerability to instructions embedded in the data being tested.
- Ingestion points: The agent is instructed to read and analyze output from
k6andautocannonruns as described inSKILL.mdandreferences/load-testing-with-k6.md. - Boundary markers: There are no explicit delimiters or instructions provided to the agent to distinguish between the load testing metrics and potentially malicious instructions returned by a target API.
- Capability inventory: The skill possesses the
Bash(npx, vercel, curl),Write, andEditcapabilities, which could be leveraged to perform harmful actions if the agent is manipulated. - Sanitization: The instructions do not define any validation or sanitization steps for the external tool outputs before they are processed by the agent.
- [METADATA_POISONING]: There is a manifest inconsistency where the instructions in
references/examples.mdsuggest usingkubectlcommands, butkubectlis not included in theallowed-toolssection of theSKILL.mdfrontmatter. This indicates the skill is either misconfigured or attempting to use unauthorized tools.
