ctf-pwn

Provides binary exploitation techniques for CTF challenges. Use when you already have a vulnerable native target or service and need to turn memory corruption or low-level primitives into code execution or privilege escalation, such as buffer overflows, format strings, heap bugs, ROP, ret2libc, shellcode, kernel exploitation, seccomp bypass, sandbox escape, or Windows/Linux exploit chains. Do not use it when the main blocker is understanding what the binary does; use reverse engineering first. Do not use it for pure web bugs, disk or packet forensics, or standalone crypto/math challenges.

Critical

E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.

What this means

Detected a prompt injection in the skill instructions. The skill contains hidden or deceptive instructions that fall outside its stated purpose and attempt to override the agent’s safety guidelines or intended behavior.

Why it was flagged

This skill contains detailed, actionable exploit techniques (ROP, UAF, FSOP, kernel/io_uring abuse, GOT overwrites, sandbox escapes, privilege escalation, etc.) that directly enable remote code execution, kernel compromise, and privilege escalation.

Medium

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

The skill explicitly documents and encourages privilege-escalation and sandbox/seccomp bypass techniques (including kernel-level tricks like modprobe_path/core_pattern) and instructs installing system packages (apt), which together could be used to compromise or modify the host system state.
