common-dast-tooling

Standardize usage of Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) tools (ZAP, Nuclei, Nikto) and custom AI-driven curl probes for adversarial system testing. Use when advising on or running dynamic security scans on local/staging environments. (triggers: DAST, dynamic scan, zap, nuclei, nikto, curl probe, pentest, dynamic analysis)

High

W007: Insecure credential handling detected in skill instructions

What this means

The skill handles credentials insecurely by requiring the agent to include secret values verbatim in its generated output. This exposes credentials in the agent’s context and conversation history, creating a risk of data exfiltration.

Why it was flagged

Insecure credential handling detected (high risk: 1.00). The prompt explicitly requires use of authenticated headers and generating adversarial curl probes (e.g., Authorization, X-Custom-Auth), which encourages embedding secret tokens/credentials directly into generated commands/requests, creating exfiltration risk.

Medium

W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk)

What this means

The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.

Why it was flagged

Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.80). The skill's implementation guide (references/implementation.md) explicitly instructs the agent to run web scanners and curl probes against URLs such as http://app.com, http://staging.app, and http://localhost:3000, meaning it fetches and interprets untrusted/public web content as part of its scanning workflow.
