Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS] (MEDIUM): The plugin configuration (
marketplace.json) defines several MCP servers installed viauvxusing the@latestversion tag. Although 'awslabs' is the official AWS lab repository, it is not explicitly present in the provided trusted source whitelist, and unpinned versions introduce a supply chain risk. Severity is reduced due to the primary purpose of the skill. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION] (MEDIUM): The 'aws-cost-operations' skill is configured to interact with highly sensitive AWS audit and monitoring services, including AWS CloudTrail and Amazon CloudWatch. Accessing audit logs and operational metrics represents a significant data exposure risk. Severity is reduced because auditing and monitoring are the primary purposes of this specific plugin.
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION] (MEDIUM): The skill includes a shell script (
validate-stack.sh) and instructions to run various shell commands (cdk synth,npm install). These scripts perform resource discovery and execute external infrastructure-as-code tools. Severity is reduced as this is standard for CDK development workflows. - [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION] (MEDIUM): Through the use of
uvx, the skill enables the dynamic download and execution of remote Python packages from the internet at runtime. Severity is reduced due to primary purpose. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION] (LOW): The skill possesses a significant attack surface for indirect prompt injection as it processes data from local project files and synthesized CloudFormation templates.
- Ingestion points: Reads
package.json,requirements.txt,pom.xml,go.mod, and synthesized*.template.jsonfiles. - Boundary markers: Delimiters or 'ignore embedded instruction' warnings are absent in the skill's logic.
- Capability inventory: Uses
cdk synth,jq,wc, andfindvia subprocesses. - Sanitization: No explicit sanitization or validation of the ingested file content before use in tool logic.
