AWS Penetration Testing
This skill should be used when the user asks to "pentest AWS", "test AWS security", "enumerate IAM", "exploit cloud infrastructure", "AWS privilege escalation", "S3 bucket testing", "metadata SSRF", "Lambda exploitation", or needs guidance on Amazon Web Services security assessment.

E005: Suspicious download URL detected in skill instructions
What this means
Detected a suspicious URL in the skill instructions that could lead the agent to download and execute malicious scripts or binaries. This includes links to executables from untrusted sources, typosquatting of official packages, URL shorteners that obscure the destination, and personal file hosting services.
Why it was flagged
Suspicious download URL detected (high risk: 1.00). These URLs include EC2 metadata endpoints, container credential endpoints, S3 bucket patterns/public bucket indexes and SSRF proxy links together with references to offensive tooling (Pacu, enumerate-iam, aws_consoler) — all of which can be used to exfiltrate credentials or deliver/execute malicious payloads, so they represent a high security risk.
E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts
What this means
Detected high-risk code patterns in the skill content — including its prompts, tool definitions, and resources — such as data exfiltration, backdoors, remote code execution, credential theft, system compromise, supply chain attacks, and obfuscation techniques.
Why it was flagged
Malicious code pattern detected (high risk: 1.00). This content explicitly instructs on credential theft (IMDS/metadata, Secrets Manager, access keys), data exfiltration (S3/volume/snapshot download), privilege escalation and persistence (creating access keys, attaching admin policies, backdooring Lambda), remote code execution and lateral movement (SSM, EC2/EBS mounting, snapshot sharing), and covering tracks (disabling CloudTrail / log obfuscation), indicating deliberate malicious intent and high-risk abuse patterns.
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 skill instructs extracting and then embedding credentials verbatim into commands and environment variables (e.g., export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=ASIA..., enumerate-iam.py --access-key AKIA... --secret-key ..., aws_consoler -a AKIAXXXX -s SECRETKEY), which requires the LLM to handle and output secret values directly, posing an exfiltration risk.
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: 0.90). The SKILL.md workflow explicitly instructs fetching and downloading arbitrary third-party content (e.g., "aws lambda get-function" followed by wget of the "url-from-previous-query", S3 sync/download commands, and SSRF calls like https://app.com/proxy?url=...), which requires the agent/operator to ingest untrusted user-provided web/S3/Lambda content and act on it (extract credentials, modify actions), exposing it to indirect prompt-injection via those external artifacts.
W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions
What this means
The skill prompts the agent to compromise the security or integrity of the user’s machine by modifying system-level services or configurations, such as obtaining elevated privileges, altering startup scripts, or changing system-wide settings.
Why it was flagged
Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions detected (high risk: 1.00). The skill includes explicit privileged local actions (e.g., using sudo to create/mount /mnt/stolen), and instructs techniques that obtain or abuse elevated privileges and persist changes, which would modify or compromise the host/agent machine state.
