Risk Level: SAFECOMMAND_EXECUTIONPROMPT_INJECTION
Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION] (SAFE): The skill interfaces with the
perplexitycommand-line tool. It implements the principle of least privilege by restricting the agent's environment toBash(perplexity:*)commands only. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION] (SAFE): While the tool transmits data to Perplexity AI, this is consistent with its stated purpose of performing AI searches. No unauthorized data exfiltration to untrusted domains was identified.
- [PROMPT_INJECTION] (LOW): The skill is susceptible to indirect prompt injection because it can process instructions from untrusted external data sources like local files and standard input.
- Ingestion points: Usage of
-fflag for file reading and shell piping (e.g.,cat questions.txt | while read q). - Boundary markers: No specific delimiters or "ignore instructions" warnings are defined for processed content.
- Capability inventory: The skill possesses the
Bashtool for command execution andReadfor file access. - Sanitization: There is no evidence of input sanitization or validation before content is passed to the CLI tool.
