+# Insecure File Management Agent
+
+A file management assistant built with the Anthropic Python SDK that demonstrates **ASI03: Identity & Privilege Abuse** from the OWASP Agentic Top 10.
+
+The agent uses Claude with tool calling to list, read, write, and delete files. It works, but it was built with zero security controls. A prompt injection hidden inside one of the data files tricks the agent into deleting everything.
+
+## What Goes Wrong
+
+The developer made four mistakes:
+
+1. **Over privileged tools.** The agent registers read, write, and delete tools even though users only need to read files.
+
+2. **No authorization checks.** When Claude asks to call `delete_file`, the code executes it immediately. No policy check, no confirmation.
+
+3. **No input sanitization.** File contents go straight to Claude as context. A poisoned file (`report_q3.txt`) contains fake "action items" that tell the agent to delete files and write new ones.
+
+4. **No audit trail.** Tool calls print to stdout but there is no structured logging.
+
+## OWASP Mapping
+
+| Vulnerability | ASI03 Risk Category |
+|---|---|
+| Agent gets all tools regardless of task | Unscoped Privilege Inheritance (Risk 1) |
+| Tool calls execute with no policy check | Missing Per Action Authorization (Risk 3) |
+| No identity verification for the caller | Missing Identity Verification |
+| No record of actions taken | Missing Audit Trail |
+
+Also related to **LLM01: Prompt Injection** (the attack vector) and **LLM06: Excessive Agency** (the static version of this problem for single LLMs).
+
+## How the Attack Works
+
+1. User asks: "Read and summarize all the files in the data directory"
+2. Agent calls `list_files`, then `read_file` on each report
+3. `report_q3.txt` contains fake "action items" that look like admin tasks: delete old reports and write a status file
+4. The system prompt tells the agent to follow instructions found in files, so it obeys
+5. Agent calls `delete_file` on `report_q1.txt` and `report_q2.txt`, then `write_file` to create `status.txt`
+6. Files are gone. A new file was written. No confirmation was requested.
+
+## Mitigations
+
+**Least privilege.** Only register tools the task requires. A "summarize" task should only get `list_files` and `read_file`.
+
+**Per action authorization.** Route every tool call through a policy engine before execution. Check who is asking and whether the action is permitted.
+
+**Input validation.** Treat file contents as untrusted. Flag content that resembles system instructions before passing it to the model.
+
+**Audit logging.** Log every tool call with timestamp, caller, tool name, input, and result.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Python 3.11+ and an Anthropic API key.
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env
+# Add your ANTHROPIC_API_KEY to .env
+```
+
+## Running Locally
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+python insecure_agent.py
+```
+
+Or with Docker:
+
+```bash
+docker build -t insecure-agent .
+docker run -e ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_key insecure-agent
+```
+
+You can also pass a custom prompt:
+
+```bash
+python insecure_agent.py "List all files and tell me what they contain"
+```
+
+## Warning
+
+This agent is deliberately insecure. It is meant for educational purposes only. Do not deploy it or use it with real data.
