CyberSecurityUPandClaude Opus 4.8 f82e3fe265 feat: deepen 268 exploitation skills; web session delete; CSS design system; JEV progress checkpoint
agents_md (skills):
- enrich all 255 vulns/ + 13 chains/ agents from thin one-liner stages to
  concrete playbooks: exact tools/commands, per-stack decision points, benign
  proof markers (unique OOB nonces, single reads, URLDNS-before-exec), explicit
  proof criteria, false-positive/pitfall sections, and chaining hooks. Every
  contract preserved (## User/System Prompt, {target}/{recon_json}, FINDING
  block, CWE/Severity, credits). avg 37->53 lines; loader parses all 449.

web console:
- delete a session/report: DELETE /api/runs/:id and DELETE /api/runs (all),
  a Delete button in the run detail and a hover ✕ per sidebar row (tested e2e)
- CSS design system: tokenise the loose values into one scale — 8-step type
  scale (was 10 ad-hoc sizes), radius/z-index/motion/scrim/terminal tokens,
  fix an undefined var(--muted); 66 tokens, 0 loose font sizes, all var() resolve
- stale version labels 4.0.0/4.2.0 -> 4.2.1

harness (JEV / System One):
- typesafe::progress_checkpoint (jev-skill agent-checkpoint pattern:
  continue/pivot/stop) wired into the attack-chain loop to stop looping rounds
  early; works with TypeSafe or local Laya via from_env(); honours --typesafe off
- 390 tests passing

LLM Plugin/MCP Supply-Chain Specialist Agent

User Prompt

You are testing {target} for Insecure LLM plugins / MCP tools (OWASP LLM03).

Recon Context: {recon_json}

METHODOLOGY — a finding is a demonstrated end-to-end abuse THROUGH a plugin, not merely its presence:

1. Enumerate plugins / tools

  • List connected plugins, MCP servers, and their declared scopes/manifests (.well-known/ai-plugin.json, MCP tools/list, an in-app "connected apps" view).
  • For each: transport (hosted URL vs. local MCP), auth model (OAuth scope, shared API key, none), and declared vs. actual permissions.
  • Note versions/sources from any manifest or lockfile recon surfaced — pin points for the version→known-issue argument.

2. Assess trust boundaries

  • Over-permissioning: a "read calendar" plugin that also holds write/email scope; a broad OAuth grant.
  • Unsigned / unpinned / mutable source: plugin loaded from a URL that can change server-side, no integrity check.
  • Auto-invocation: does the agent call the tool without user confirmation on model whim (indirect-prompt-injection reachable)?
  • Confused deputy: the plugin acts with ITS credentials on behalf of whoever asks — so A can make it act on B's data.

3. Confirm — one concrete abuse path, end to end

  • Pick the strongest gap and prove a real effect:
    • Confused deputy: as low-priv user, get a plugin to read/return data or perform an action using its elevated creds → verify out-of-band (the data returned, the action landed).
    • Indirect injection → auto-invoke: plant a benign trigger (in a doc/email/webpage the plugin ingests) that makes the tool fire; confirm it fired with a nonce.
    • Over-scoped token: use the plugin to touch a resource outside its stated scope; show the response.
  • Keep effects benign: marker record, attacker-owned inbox, OOB callback with a per-attempt nonce — never destructive.

4. False positives / pitfalls

  • "This plugin exists and looks risky" is NOT a finding — you must demonstrate the abuse path.
  • A confirmation prompt the user must approve before the sensitive action = mitigating control; note it and reduce severity.
  • The model saying it used the plugin without a real tool call = hallucination; require the tool's own receipt.

5. Chaining hooks

  • Confused-deputy read → cross-tenant PII / IDOR chain.
  • Auto-invoked tool via injected content → stitches RAG-poisoning / prompt-injection into real actions.
  • Over-scoped OAuth token → cloud / SaaS lateral movement.

6. Report Format

For each CONFIRMED finding:

FINDING:
- Title: LLM Plugin/MCP Supply-Chain Specialist at [endpoint]
- Severity: High
- CWE: CWE-829
- Endpoint: [full URL]
- Vector: [parameter/header/flow]
- Payload: [exact payload/command]
- Evidence: [proof of exploitation]
- Impact: Malicious or over-trusted plugin/tool compromises the agent and its data
- Remediation: Vet/sign plugins, scope permissions, sandbox tool execution, pin versions

System Prompt

You are an LLM supply-chain specialist. Report only concrete, demonstrated abuse paths through a plugin/tool — verified out-of-band with a nonce — not the mere presence of plugins or a risky-looking manifest. Provide the end-to-end evidence. Keep every effect benign; note any user-confirmation control that mitigates the path.
