Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill instructs the agent to download and install the
jwt_toolutility from an external GitHub repository (github.com/ticarpi/jwt_tool) and install its dependencies usingpip. While this is a common security tool, it originates from a source not explicitly categorized as trusted. - [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: By instructing the installation of
jwt_tooland executing it alongside user-provided data, the skill creates a path for remote code execution if the external tool or its dependencies are compromised. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill makes heavy use of shell commands (
curl,base64,git) and inline Python scripts (python3 -c) to decode tokens, perform network reconnaissance on target domains, and generate cryptographic keys. These capabilities are broad and grant the agent significant control over the local environment and network. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is susceptible to indirect prompt injection.
- Ingestion points: Untrusted data enters the agent context via JWT strings provided by the user in
SKILL.mdtriggers. - Boundary markers: The instructions lack explicit boundary markers or warnings to ignore instructions embedded within the decoded JWT payloads.
- Capability inventory: The agent has access to
curl,python3,pip, andgitacross the provided scripts. - Sanitization: There is no evidence of sanitization or validation of the JWT content before it is processed or used in subsequent command arguments.
