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

The prompt instructs extracting and printing beacon configuration fields (C2 domains/IPs, URIs, user-agents, pipe names, watermarks and cryptographic keys) verbatim and embedding them into outputs (JSON, signatures, rules), which requires the LLM to handle and emit sensitive secret/credential-like values directly.
