Nearby Conference Centers

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple location-based conference venue lookup guide with no executable code or hidden high-risk behavior.

Before installing, understand that this skill is meant to use an authorized latitude/longitude to search for nearby conference venues. It appears low risk, but users should still share location only when needed and expect any implementation to avoid storing precise coordinates longer than necessary.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • 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 skill content is primarily written in Chinese but embeds English-only phrases such as "Conference Centers" and English trigger examples. This may impose a language/locale expectation on users without explicitly offering localization or opt-in behavior.
