Full Analysis
- [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is designed to ingest and analyze external trace data (e.g., .pftrace files) that could contain malicious instructions embedded within trace event names, thread names, or argument values. When the agent queries this data and interprets the output, it could be influenced by these hidden prompts.
- Ingestion points: External trace files loaded via the
--pathparameter in thetrace_query.bundle.cjsscript, as documented inSKILL.md. - Boundary markers: No specific delimiters or "ignore embedded instructions" directives are present in the instructions to prevent the agent from following prompts found within tool outputs.
- Capability inventory: The skill allows script execution (
node), raw SQL queries (sql), and trace recording (readData), which could be misused if an injection is successful. - Sanitization: There are no documented steps for validating or sanitizing the content of the trace files before the agent processes them.
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill provides native support for fetching trace data from remote URLs. The CLI tool
trace_query.bundle.cjsaccepts a URL for the--pathargument, allowing the agent to download and process data from any user-specified or prompt-specified internet location. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill instructions direct the agent to execute shell commands using
nodeto run a local script bundle (trace_query.bundle.cjs). Additionally, thesqlcommand allows for the execution of raw SQL queries against the trace processor database, which, while useful for analysis, provides a high-degree of control over the data retrieval process. - [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: The skill relies on a pre-bundled JavaScript file (
trace_query.bundle.cjs) to perform its core logic. This script is executed at runtime via thenodeprocess, which is a form of dynamic execution of skill-provided assets.
