Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill instructs the agent to install binaries from the vendor's GitHub repository and npm registry using
go installandnpx. While these are vendor-owned resources, they involve downloading and executing external code during setup. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The CLI tool supports a
--deliver webhook:<url>flag, which allows the agent to POST command outputs to arbitrary external URLs. This represents a significant vector for data exfiltration if the agent is manipulated into sending sensitive information. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The
feedbackcommand can be configured via environment variables (NVD_FEEDBACK_ENDPOINTandNVD_FEEDBACK_AUTO_SEND) to automatically transmit local data from~/.nvd-pp-cli/feedback.jsonlto a remote server. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill utilizes the
nvd-pp-clibinary to perform searches and management tasks. It includes a--deliver file:<path>capability that allows the agent to write output to arbitrary file paths, potentially leading to unauthorized file creation or overwriting of system files. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill ingests and processes vulnerability data (CVEs, CPEs) from the National Vulnerability Database, which is an external, untrusted source.
- Ingestion points: Results from
search-cvesandsearch-cpescommands inSKILL.md. - Boundary markers: No specific delimiters or warnings are provided to the agent to ignore instructions embedded within the vulnerability data.
- Capability inventory: The tool possesses the ability to write to the file system (
--deliver file:) and perform network operations (--deliver webhook:). - Sanitization: There is no evidence of sanitization or filtering of the NVD content before it is processed by the agent.
