    Attack

    A booby-trapped skill, plugin or MCP server can lead an agent to run malicious code with the user's rights.

    • No flaw is needed: third-party content becomes a privileged instruction or code executed with your rights.

    • The CVERC advisory on skill poisoning dates from 22 April 2026, and the article that relayed it from 13 September.

    • Fake prerequisites and hostile scripts or binaries are the simplest and most observed mechanisms.

    • Only 76 skills were confirmed malicious by hand in the Snyk study, according to the author.
