Full Analysis
  • [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes content from external, untrusted RSS and Atom feeds, creating a surface for indirect prompt injection attacks where malicious instructions could be hidden within news items or summaries.
  • Ingestion points: The agent fetches XML content from external URLs provided by the user or discovered on websites using the curl tool (SKILL.md).
  • Boundary markers: No specific delimiters, framing, or explicit "ignore embedded instructions" warnings are provided to the agent to separate retrieved feed data from its core instructions.
  • Capability inventory: The skill uses curl to perform network requests and retrieve data from the internet (SKILL.md).
  • Sanitization: The instructions recommend stripping HTML from item descriptions and decoding entities, which helps mitigate technical payloads but does not prevent natural language instruction overrides (SKILL.md).
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill utilizes the curl command-line utility to retrieve feed data.
  • Evidence: The instructions direct the agent to execute curl -sL with user-supplied or discovered URLs to fetch XML feeds (SKILL.md).
  • [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill performs network operations to retrieve content from external domains for processing.
  • Evidence: The skill fetches data from sources such as hnrss.org and other feed URLs provided during execution (SKILL.md).
