algorithmic-art — agentic threat model

6.8AIVSS 6.8 · Medium

The algorithmic-art agent presents low direct agentic risk due to its lack of system execution capabilities, but poses a moderate client-side security risk through the generation of HTML/JS code that could be manipulated via prompt injection to execute arbitrary scripts (XSS) in the user's browser.

OWASP AIVSS score rationale

AIVSS = (CVSS_Base + AARS) × Mitigation_Factor, where AARS = (10 − CVSS_Base) × (Factor_Sum / 10) × ThM

MAESTRO 7-layer threat model

Per-layer threats for this agent. Layers tagged “not certain from listing” are general, caveated commentary where the public description didn’t pin that layer.

L1 · Foundation Models⚠ not certain from listing

Not certain from the listing — likely relies on Anthropic's Claude models. The primary threat at this layer is prompt injection or jailbreaking that could force the model to output malicious payloads disguised as p5.js code.

L2 · Data Operations⚠ not certain from listing

Not certain from the listing — no data operations, vector databases, or training pipelines are mentioned. The agent operates entirely on user prompts and parametric knowledge.

L3 · Agent Frameworks✓ mapped

The agent uses a structured two-step orchestration (philosophy generation then code generation) using templates (generator_template.js, viewer.html). A key threat is prompt injection bypassing the structure to generate arbitrary malicious HTML/JS instead of art.

L4 · Deployment & Infrastructure✓ mapped

The emitted HTML/JS runs in-browser on the client side. The primary threat is client-side execution of untrusted generated code (XSS, local storage access, or browser-based exploits) if the hosting environment does not enforce strict Content Security Policies (CSP).

L5 · Evaluation & Observability⚠ not certain from listing

Not certain from the listing — there are no mentioned guardrails, evaluation steps, or logging mechanisms to detect if the generated code contains malicious scripts before rendering.

L6 · Security & Compliance (cross-cutting)⚠ not certain from listing

Not certain from the listing — no authentication, authorization, or compliance policies are described for the generation or execution phases.

L7 · Agent Ecosystem⚠ not certain from listing

Not certain from the listing — this is a single-purpose skill with no described multi-agent or marketplace interactions, though as an open-source skill, it could be integrated into larger malicious workflows.
