Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill functions by executing the
kilobatCLI utility and its MCP server equivalent to perform diagnostic tasks on macOS systems. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The instructions designate several commands as "read-only, run without asking," which permits the agent to collect and potentially exfiltrate sensitive local data without user confirmation. This includes mapping all devices on the local network (
kilobat devices), identifying the network destinations for every running process (kilobat destinations), and accessing detailed historical application usage statistics (kilobat report). - [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: The skill invokes commands that trigger macOS administrator prompts for elevated access, such as modifying system DNS settings (
kilobat dns) and capturing packet headers (kilobat capture). While the instructions mandate asking the user first, the skill is designed to leverage these high-privilege operations. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill provides an attack surface for indirect prompt injection by ingesting untrusted data from the environment (e.g., process names, SSIDs, and diagnostic strings) without sanitization.
- Ingestion points: Data from
kilobat diagnose,kilobat status, andkilobat scan. - Boundary markers: Absent; the agent is instructed to quote and interpret tool output directly.
- Capability inventory: The agent has the capability to modify system settings, block apps, and monitor network traffic.
- Sanitization: No sanitization or validation is applied to strings ingested from tool outputs before they are processed by the agent.
