Weaponized Skill — Agent as Attack Tool - ATR-2026-00122 (d42362ab-fa7b-53cf-a664-788416e533fc)

Detects skills that weaponize AI agents for offensive operations. Cato Networks demonstrated deploying MedusaLocker ransomware via a modified Claude skill (Dec 2025, disclosed to Anthropic Oct 30, 2025). The "consent gap" allows approved skills to download/execute code, read env vars, and write files without further prompts. arXiv 2601.17548 documents attack tooling embedded in skills with 41-84% success rates. Real examples include SQLMap workflows, Metasploit payloads, and credential brute-force tools found on skills.sh and ClawHub.
