Risk Level: SAFEINDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTIONDYNAMIC_EXECUTION
Full Analysis
- [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill instructs on building modules that ingest data from external sources (the Joomla database) and render it within templates. This creates a surface for indirect prompt injection if an attacker can manipulate database content (e.g., article titles, user names) to include instructions for an agent.
- Ingestion points:
src/Helper/ExampleHelper.phpandsrc/Helper/ArticlesHelper.phpfetch data from the#__articles,#__categories, and#__userstables. - Boundary markers: The instructions and examples lack specific boundary markers or instructions for the agent to ignore embedded commands within the rendered content.
- Capability inventory: The skill utilizes database read operations (
DatabaseInterface) and dynamic file inclusion (requireinmod_ejemplo.php). - Sanitization: The skill correctly recommends and demonstrates the use of
htmlspecialchars()andJoomla\CMS\HTML\HTMLHelperto sanitize output for HTML rendering, which mitigates XSS but not necessarily prompt injection. - [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: The entry point script (
mod_ejemplo.php) uses dynamic file inclusion viarequire $path, where the path is resolved at runtime based on thelayoutparameter. While this is standard practice in Joomla's architecture, it involves executing code from a path computed from configuration data.
