Aavegotchi 3D Renderer

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill does what it says for Aavegotchi rendering, but its helper script trusts renderer-provided download URLs too broadly, which could make the user's machine fetch arbitrary or oversized remote content.

Review before installing. Use this only in an environment where outbound network requests are acceptable, avoid running it on hosts with sensitive internal HTTP services, and prefer a restricted output directory. The skill would be safer if it validated artifact URLs against expected Aavegotchi/CDN hosts and enforced timeouts and download size limits.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • 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

Undeclared Tool Scope

Medium
Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The skill performs network operations against external services but does not declare any explicit tool scope or permissions. This weakens reviewability and policy enforcement, because an agent may invoke outbound requests without a clearly documented authorization boundary.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding

The skill sends user-supplied token identifiers or inventory-derived data to third-party endpoints at Goldsky and aavegotchi.com. This is an external data transmission risk because user input and derived metadata leave the local trust boundary, and the skill does not describe minimization, consent, or validation around those transfers.

Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The skill instructs saving raw JSON responses and rendered image artifacts to local disk without warning the user or defining retention limits. Even if the data is not highly sensitive in normal use, silent persistence can expose user-linked URLs, token identifiers, metadata, or downloaded content to later unintended access on shared systems.
