Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The helper script
scripts/agent.pyuses thesubprocessmodule to execute forensic analysis tools such as Volatility 3, rkhunter, and chkrootkit to inspect memory dumps and system integrity. - [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: The workflow in
SKILL.mdutilizes a shell heredoc to dynamically generate and execute a Python script that compares process lists for discrepancies during cross-view analysis. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes output from forensic tools which analyze potentially compromised systems, creating a surface for indirect prompt injection if a rootkit attempts to manipulate tool output with malicious instructions.
- Ingestion points: The skill ingests process IDs and module information from tool outputs like
pslist_output.txtand memory dumps in bothscripts/agent.pyandSKILL.md. - Boundary markers: No delimiters or safety instructions are used to separate tool output from the agent's control logic.
- Capability inventory: The agent can execute shell commands via
subprocess.run, perform file reads/writes, and list directory contents. - Sanitization: There is no evidence of sanitization or validation of the data retrieved from the forensic tools before it is processed.
