Full Analysis
- EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS (CRITICAL): Automated security scanners have flagged the following files/entities as malicious:
teams.mdwas identified as containing a Phishing URL.agno.skwas flagged as being associated with a Botnet threat. These findings represent confirmed detections requiring immediate isolation.- REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION (HIGH): The skill provides
PythonTools(references/tools/builtin-dev.md) which allows the agent to run arbitrary Python code and install third-party packages viapip. These capabilities allow for full remote code execution if the agent is manipulated via prompt injection. - COMMAND_EXECUTION (HIGH): The skill provides
ShellToolsandDockerTools(references/tools/builtin-dev.md) which enable the agent to execute arbitrary shell commands and manage Docker containers. This functionality grants high-privilege access to the host environment. - PROMPT_INJECTION (LOW): The skill defines a large surface for Indirect Prompt Injection (Category 8).
- Ingestion points: The
Knowledgesystem (references/knowledge.md) processes untrusted external data from URLs, PDFs, and CSVs. - Boundary markers: Documentation examples show direct template interpolation (e.g.,
{user_input}) without explicit boundary delimiters or instructions to ignore embedded commands. - Capability inventory: As noted above, the skill includes powerful capabilities like
ShellTools,PythonTools, and various communication toolkits. - Sanitization: No explicit sanitization logic is provided for external data before it enters the LLM context.
- EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS (LOW): The
scripts/check-updates.pyscript performs network operations to fetch metadata frompypi.organddocs.agno.com. Per the [TRUST-SCOPE-RULE], these findings are downgraded to LOW/INFO as the sources are verified and trusted, and the script logic does not involve dynamic execution of the downloaded content.
Recommendations
- AI detected serious security threats
- Contains 2 malicious URL(s) - DO NOT USE
