triaging-security-reports

triaging-security-reports is a skill for Claude Code from apache/struts. It costs 63 tokens per session (2,050 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A method for independently investigating reported security problems in Apache Struts instead of accepting the reporter's conclusion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Triaging vulnerability reports, assessing CVE or injection claims, and drafting evidence-based replies to security researchers.
Why use it?
It requires every claim, verdict, and mitigation to be checked against the current source code before responding.

About the project

Apache Struts is an open-source Java web framework that helps developers build applications using the Model-View-Controller pattern, separating data and business logic from page presentation and request handling. Java developers use it to create dynamic web applications with interactive forms and database-backed behavior. The catalogue's skills, instructions, and setting support work with Struts projects.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

triaging-security-reports scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Triaging Security Reports

Overview

A security report is a claim to be tested, not a finding to be confirmed or rebutted. The reporter may be right, wrong, partially right, or right about the symptom and wrong about the cause. Your job is to independently re-derive the truth from current source.

Core principle: Every factual statement that ends up in your assessment or reply — the reporter's claims and your own — must be traced to current source code before you write it down. The most common failure is not believing the reporter; it is inventing supporting facts to justify a verdict you already reached.

Process authority: SECURITY.md is the source of truth for the disclosure process (private handling, assessment checklist, reporting rules). Read it. This skill governs how you research and respond, not the process itself.

The Iron Rule

NO CLAIM IN A SECURITY RESPONSE WITHOUT A FILE:LINE YOU READ THIS SESSION.

Applies to the verdict, every mitigation you cite, and every "default" you state. If you can't point to the line, you can't write the sentence.

Research: report-blind, not report-led

Read the report once to know what to investigate. Then research as if you were auditing that area cold — do not let the report's framing drive your search.

For each claim, independently verify:

Reporter asserts You must verify from source
A line number ("bug is at X:392") Read that line and its call path — is it even reachable as described?
A severity / CVSS Re-derive from actual exploitability, not their number
"No mitigation / no gate exists" Search for gates, filters, allowlists, authorizers yourself — absence claims are the most often wrong
"Default configuration" Check the effective runtime default, not one source (see trap below)
"Same as CVE-XXXX" Confirm the mechanism actually matches; analogy ≠ equivalence
A working PoC Run it if it is runnable, then trace whether the payload survives every filter on the path

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

triaging-security-reports is a skill published in the GitHub repository apache/struts (1,366 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 63 tokens to every session and 2,050 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
