Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a markdown-only Chinese research skill for analyzing Mao Zedong writings, with no code execution, credential access, persistence, or hidden data flow found.

Install this if you want a Chinese-language research aid for Mao Zedong writings and related theory. Be aware that it presents a specific interpretive framework and may default to Chinese templates, so users needing multilingual or more viewpoint-balanced analysis should set those expectations explicitly.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • 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

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
83% confidence
Finding
The entire skill specification is written to operate exclusively in Chinese and does not offer the user a language choice or opt-in. Under the stated policy, forcing a specific language without user opt-in is a natural-language policy violation unless the locale constraint is explicitly documented and justified.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding
This markdown file contains a language-specific skill resource and presents it as the core reference for the skill, but it does not indicate that Chinese is optional or that users can choose another language. Under the policy rule for natural-language violations, forcing a specific language without user opt-in is reportable.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill is framed entirely as a Chinese-language output template and does not provide any mechanism to respect the user's language preference. In an agent setting, this can override higher-priority user expectations, reduce usability, and cause policy or accessibility issues when responses must match the user's requested language.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding
The instruction to 'automatically choose the most suitable template based on the user's question' is overly broad and unconstrained, which can cause the skill to activate or steer responses beyond the user's explicit intent. In a composed agent environment, this increases the risk of prompt overreach, unintended formatting control, and reduced predictability of system behavior.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding
This README is entirely written in Chinese and all example prompts and usage guidance assume Chinese-language interaction. Under the policy rule, forcing a specific language without user opt-in can be a natural-language policy violation when no alternative language option or justification is provided.
