Critical

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 document provides detailed, actionable instructions for account takeover and authentication bypass techniques (brute force, credential stuffing, session fixation, JWT manipulation, host-header injection, OTP brute-force) plus evasion tactics—presenting a high risk for malicious abuse.

Report incorrect finding
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 skill includes explicit examples and steps that capture and then embed sensitive values verbatim (passwords, session cookies, JWTs, reset tokens, test account credentials) into requests/commands, requiring the LLM to handle secrets directly and therefore posing high exfiltration risk.
