Poyo Claude 4 6 Api

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed PoYo Claude Messages API helper that sends only user-chosen payloads to the documented PoYo endpoint when explicitly requested.

Install only if you intend to use PoYo for Claude Messages API calls. Treat POYO_API_KEY and request payloads as sensitive, run the submit script only with payloads you are willing to send to PoYo, and avoid placing secrets or private data in examples, logs, browser code, or public repositories.

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
