zoho-inventory

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed Zoho Inventory integration that can perform sensitive business-data actions, but its high-impact actions are documented with user-approval and scoping requirements.

Before installing, be aware this skill can read and modify real Zoho Inventory business records and can set up persistent automations if you approve them. Use read-only scopes where possible, confirm every write or automation, and avoid third-party trigger destinations unless you understand exactly what data will be forwarded and for how long.

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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • 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

Finding

The manifest frames this skill as a Zoho Inventory integration and explicitly says Zoho Inventory is not an event source, while this file documents how a connected Calendly source can emit events to downstream automation. Although the file states it is shared reference text and does not widen the app's scope, it still introduces a concrete non-Zoho capability—Calendly-triggered workflows—that is not justified by the skill's stated inventory-management purpose.
