Poyo Video Translator

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a coherent PoYo video-translation helper that discloses its API use and does not show hidden, persistent, or unrelated behavior.

Install only if you intend to use PoYo for video translation. Treat POYO_API_KEY as a secret, review payloads before submission, and avoid sending private media URLs, callback URLs, or outputs unless your PoYo account and data policy allow it.

A.I.G

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

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.

Finding

This shell script sends the contents of the provided JSON payload to a remote API using curl, which is a network operation that may transmit user or system data. The script includes no confirmation prompt, logging, comments, or other user-facing disclosure about this transmission beyond the raw implementation itself.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding

The script requires and consumes the POYO_API_KEY environment variable, which is a sensitive credential. There is no comment, log message, or documentation in the script warning the user that a credential is required and will be used for authenticating a remote request.
