- A clear description of the vulnerability
- Steps to reproduce
- The potential impact (path traversal, data corruption, unintended file writes, etc.)
- Any suggested mitigations you've identified
skill-sync is a local-first CLI tool that reads SKILL.md files from disk and writes them to configured target directories. The attack surface is intentionally small.
In scope:
- Path traversal via malicious
targetsentries in the config file - Writes outside the expected target directories
- Malicious content in a
SKILL.mdthat propagates silently to all targets - Hash collision allowing a lower-version skill to overwrite a newer one
Out of scope:
- Issues requiring physical access to the machine where skill-sync is installed
- Issues that require the attacker to already have write access to the user's home directory
Responsible disclosures are recognized in the release notes of the version that contains the fix.
