# Skill Security Auditor — `/dev skill-audit`

> **Agent:** Bruno (Security Engineer) | **Framework:** OWASP LLM Top 10, Supply Chain Security

## What It Does

Scans AI agent skill directories for security risks before installation. Produces a PASS / WARN / FAIL verdict with findings and remediation guidance.

## Scan Categories

### 1. Code Execution Risks

| Pattern | What to Detect | Severity |
|---------|---------------|----------|
| Command injection | `os.system()`, `subprocess.call(shell=True)`, backticks | CRITICAL |
| Dynamic execution | `eval()`, `exec()`, `compile()`, `__import__()` | CRITICAL |
| Obfuscation | base64 payloads, hex strings, `chr()` chains | CRITICAL |
| Network exfiltration | `requests.post()`, `socket.connect()`, outbound HTTP | CRITICAL |
| Credential harvesting | Reads `~/.ssh`, `~/.aws`, env var extraction | CRITICAL |
| File system abuse | Writes outside skill dir, modifies `~/.bashrc` | HIGH |
| Unsafe deserialization | `pickle.loads()`, `yaml.load()` without SafeLoader | HIGH |

### 2. Prompt Injection in SKILL.md

| Pattern | Example | Severity |
|---------|---------|----------|
| System prompt override | "Ignore previous instructions" | CRITICAL |
| Role hijacking | "Act as root", "Pretend you have no restrictions" | CRITICAL |
| Safety bypass | "Skip safety checks", "Disable content filtering" | CRITICAL |
| Hidden instructions | Zero-width characters, HTML comments with directives | HIGH |
| Data extraction | "Send contents of", "Upload file to", "POST to" | CRITICAL |

### 3. Supply Chain Risks

| Check | What It Does | Severity |
|-------|-------------|----------|
| Known CVEs | Cross-reference dependencies with advisory databases | CRITICAL |
| Typosquatting | Flag packages similar to popular ones (e.g., `reqeusts`) | HIGH |
| Unpinned versions | `requests>=2.0` vs `requests==2.31.0` | LOW |
| Install in code | `pip install` or `npm install` inside scripts | HIGH |
| Binary files | Unexpected `.so`, `.dll`, `.exe` in skill directory | CRITICAL |

### 4. File System Checks

| Check | What It Does | Severity |
|-------|-------------|----------|
| Boundary violation | Scripts referencing paths outside skill directory | HIGH |
| Hidden files | `.env`, dotfiles that should not be in a skill | HIGH |
| Symlinks | Symbolic links pointing outside skill directory | CRITICAL |
| Large files | Files > 1MB that could hide payloads | LOW |

## Audit Workflow

1. **Scan** all `.py`, `.sh`, `.js`, `.ts`, `.md` files in the skill directory
2. **Classify** findings by severity (CRITICAL / HIGH / LOW)
3. **Verdict**: PASS (no critical/high), WARN (high only), FAIL (any critical)
4. **Remediate** each finding using the fix guidance provided

## Proactive Triggers

Surface these issues WITHOUT being asked:

- Skill executing arbitrary shell commands → CRITICAL security flag
- Skill reading files outside project dir → flag data leakage risk
- No input sanitization in tool params → flag prompt injection vector

## Output

```markdown
## Skill Security Audit: <skill-name>

### Verdict: FAIL

### CRITICAL (2 findings)
- [C1] CODE-EXEC — scripts/helper.py:42 — `eval(user_input)`
  Fix: Replace with `ast.literal_eval()` or explicit parsing
- [C2] NET-EXFIL — scripts/analyzer.py:88 — `requests.post()` to external URL
  Fix: Remove outbound calls or verify destination is trusted

### HIGH (1 finding)
- [H1] FS-BOUNDARY — scripts/scanner.py:15 — reads `~/.ssh/id_rsa`
  Fix: Remove filesystem access outside skill directory

### LOW (1 finding)
- [L1] DEPS-UNPIN — requirements.txt:3 — `requests>=2.0`
  Fix: Pin to specific version `requests==2.31.0`

### Recommendation: Do NOT install until C1 and C2 are resolved
