What it does

Detecting Azure Storage Account Misconfigurations is an agent skill from mukul975/Anthropic-Cybersecurity-Skills. Audit Azure Blob and ADLS storage accounts for public access exposure, weak or long-lived SAS tokens, missing encryption at rest, disabled HTTPS-only traffic, and outdated TLS versions, using the azure-mgmt-storage Python SDK to generate a risk-scored report. Use when assessing an Azure subscription's storage accounts for misconfiguration, building cloud security posture checks, or investigating a suspected data exposure via public blob access.

Its SKILL.md is about 730 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/api-reference.md` and `scripts/agent.py`).

It sits in Security, covering Cloud security. It works with Microsoft Azure and Python. The repository describes itself as: 817 structured cybersecurity skills for AI agents · Mapped to 6 frameworks: MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATLAS, D3FEND, NIST AI RMF & MITRE F3 (Fight Fraud) · agentskills.io…. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Assessing an Azure subscriptions storage accounts for misconfiguration
  • Building cloud security posture checks
  • Investigating a suspected data exposure via public blob access

Example prompts

  • “/detecting-azure-storage-account-misconfigurations”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Public blob access — allow_blob_public_access enabled on storage account or individual containers set to Blob/Container access level
  2. HTTPS enforcement — enable_https_traffic_only disabled, allowing unencrypted HTTP traffic
  3. Minimum TLS version — accounts accepting TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1 instead of minimum TLS 1.2
  4. Encryption at rest — storage service encryption not enabled or missing customer-managed keys
  5. Network rules — default action set to Allow instead of Deny, exposing storage to all networks
  6. SAS token risks — account-level SAS with overly broad permissions or excessive lifetime

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 54a7988. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Detecting Azure Storage Account Misconfigurations loads about 732 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 125 tokens; SKILL.md has 236 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~125
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~732
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.6k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Detecting Azure Storage Account Misconfigurations

Overview

Azure Storage accounts are a frequent target for attackers due to misconfigured public access, long-lived SAS tokens, missing encryption, and outdated TLS versions. This skill uses the azure-mgmt-storage Python SDK with StorageManagementClient to enumerate all storage accounts in a subscription, inspect their security properties, list blob containers for public access settings, and generate a risk-scored audit report identifying critical misconfigurations.

When to Use

  • When investigating security incidents that require detecting azure storage account misconfigurations
  • When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
  • When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
  • When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.9+ with azure-mgmt-storage, azure-identity
  • Azure service principal with Reader role on target subscription
  • Environment variables: AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET, AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID

Key Detection Areas

  1. Public blob access — allow_blob_public_access enabled on storage account or individual containers set to Blob/Container access level
  2. HTTPS enforcement — enable_https_traffic_only disabled, allowing unencrypted HTTP traffic
  3. Minimum TLS version — accounts accepting TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1 instead of minimum TLS 1.2
  4. Encryption at rest — storage service encryption not enabled or missing customer-managed keys
  5. Network rules — default action set to Allow instead of Deny, exposing storage to all networks
  6. SAS token risks — account-level SAS with overly broad permissions or excessive lifetime

Output

JSON report with per-account findings, severity ratings (Critical/High/Medium/Low), and remediation recommendations aligned with CIS Azure Benchmark controls.
