osint-methodology

Comprehensive OSINT methodology for external red-team operations and authorized attack-surface assessments. Covers the 5-stage recon pipeline, asset-graph discipline, severity rubric, confidence upgrade workflows, time budgeting, identity-fabric mapping, breach×identity correlation, detectability tagging, detection-aware probing, WAF/CDN bypass, vulnerability prioritization, phishing infrastructure planning, bug bounty submission, and client deliverable templates. Use when planning or executing reconnaissance against authorized targets, mapping an organization's external attack surface, investigating a person/entity, or producing client deliverables.

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: 0.95). This skill is a high-risk dual-use offensive OSINT playbook: it contains detailed operational techniques for credential harvesting, phishing infrastructure, detection evasion (egress/IP rotation, sock-puppets), WAF/CDN bypass, stealer-log handling, and origin discovery that can be directly abused to facilitate credential theft, targeted phishing, stealthy scanning, and data exfiltration despite stated "authorized use" guardrails.

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: 1.00). The SKILL.md explicitly requires fetching and ingesting public third-party content (e.g., crt.sh, Shodan, Wayback/SavePageNow, GitHub, HudsonRock/HIBP/DeHashed and other public feeds) as part of the recon pipeline and breach/identity correlation workflows (§7 Seed Discovery, §11/§12, §4 Source Hygiene), and those untrusted, user-generated/open-web sources are used to upgrade confidence levels and drive follow-on actions, so third-party content can materially influence decisions.
