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
These URLs include public S3 bucket URL patterns and a public bucket-indexing site (grayhatwarfare) which are commonly used to host or serve arbitrary files and are frequently abused to distribute malware.
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
This content provides explicit, actionable instructions to steal AWS credentials, exfiltrate data, escalate privileges, backdoor Lambda functions, gain persistence, and evade logging — representing high-risk malicious capability despite the stated authorization caveats.
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 skill explicitly instructs extracting, exporting, and passing AWS access keys, secret keys, and session tokens verbatim in commands and CLI arguments (e.g., --access-key/--secret-key, aws_consoler -a/-s, export AWS_*), which requires the LLM to handle secret values directly and poses exfiltration risk.
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 includes explicit privileged local commands (e.g., "sudo mkdir /mnt/stolen" and "sudo mount ...") and numerous instructions to create, modify, or delete cloud resources (create-access-key, attach policies, update Lambda code, delete CloudTrail, run SSM commands) which would change the state of the host or environment and enable persistent compromise.
