analyzing-command-and-control-communication
Analyzes malware command-and-control (C2) communication protocols to understand beacon patterns, command structures, data encoding, and infrastructure. Covers HTTP, HTTPS, DNS, and custom protocol C2 analysis for detection development and threat intelligence. Activates for requests involving C2 analysis, beacon detection, C2 protocol reverse engineering, or command-and-control infrastructure mapping.

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.md workflow (Step 5 "Map C2 Infrastructure") and prerequisites explicitly show the agent calling public threat-intel APIs (e.g., Shodan and VirusTotal via requests.get) to ingest third‑party internet data for enrichment, which the skill then parses and uses to drive infrastructure mapping and signature generation—i.e., untrusted external content is read and can materially influence actions.
