Poyo Flux Schnell

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a narrowly scoped PoYo text-to-image helper that clearly discloses its API key use and outbound request behavior.

Install only if you intend to use PoYo's FLUX Schnell API. Keep POYO_API_KEY server-side, review payload JSON before submission, avoid confidential prompts or private callback URLs unless you trust PoYo and the callback receiver, and require explicit approval before any live request.

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

Findings (12)

Credential Access

High
Category
Privilege Escalation
Confidence
70% confidence
Finding

Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.

text

Get API keys from <https://poyo.ai/dashboard/api-key>. Use the server-side `POYO_API_KEY` environment variable.

## Model

Undeclared Tool Scope

Medium
Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The skill documents shell execution and network access but does not declare an explicit tool-permission scope such as permissions or allowed-tools. That creates a policy gap where an agent runtime may grant broader execution ability than intended, increasing the chance of unintended command execution or misuse of local/system resources.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The script performs an HTTP POST to an external API and transmits the contents of the user-supplied JSON file, but it provides no confirmation prompt, print/log message, or explanatory comment/docstring warning that local data will be sent off-host. For code files, outbound transmission of user or system data should include some form of visible disclosure unless the warning is provided elsewhere.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding

The script reads a sensitive credential from the POYO_API_KEY environment variable, but there is no user-facing notice, comment, or documentation in the file explaining that the skill depends on and uses an API token. The rule calls for flagging sensitive environment variable access when no disclosure is present.
