Risk Level: MEDIUMCOMMAND_EXECUTIONDYNAMIC_EXECUTIONINDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION
Full Analysis
- [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: The skill includes an
evalcommand (obsidian eval code="...") that allows the agent to execute arbitrary JavaScript within the context of the running Obsidian application. While intended for development and debugging, this provides a mechanism to run unvalidated code that can access internal application data or modify application behavior. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill acts as a wrapper for the
obsidiancommand-line interface. It executes shell commands to perform vault operations, file management, and developer tasks, granting the agent significant control over the local Obsidian environment. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill features commands to read and search vault content (
read,search,backlinks), which creates an ingestion surface for untrusted data. If a note contains malicious instructions, it could influence the agent's behavior during processing. - Ingestion points: Commands such as
obsidian read,obsidian search, andobsidian daily:readinSKILL.mdbring external file content into the agent's context. - Boundary markers: The skill instructions do not specify any delimiters or ignore-instructions for the data read from the vault.
- Capability inventory: The skill can execute shell commands via the
obsidianCLI, write to the file system (create,append,dev:screenshot), and execute arbitrary JavaScript (eval). - Sanitization: No sanitization or validation of the content retrieved from the vault is mentioned.
