Psychology Daily

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple Chinese-language search-and-summary helper for psychology and neuroscience news, with no code execution, persistence, credential access, or hidden data handling.

Installers should understand that this skill is designed to answer in Chinese and to use web search for current public psychology and neuroscience sources. The fixed date in the instructions should be corrected by the publisher for accuracy, but it does not indicate malicious behavior.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium

Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The overview states the skill outputs results in '全中文', which imposes a specific language on all users. This is a natural-language policy concern because the file does not offer any language choice or opt-in for users who may prefer another locale.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The file requires '标题和摘要全中文', which hard-codes the response language for core content. Because no alternative language option or user preference mechanism is documented, this constitutes a language/locale policy violation.

Confidence

Finding

This markdown file presents instructions and source lists in Chinese, with some English query examples, but does not indicate whether the skill is intended only for Chinese-speaking users or offer any language/locale opt-in. Under the policy rule for natural-language constraints, forcing a specific language without user choice can be a policy concern.
