Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed Xiaohongshu research workflow that can publish only after a user-reviewed draft step.

Install only if you intend to use Chinese-language Xiaohongshu research workflows. Treat --publish as a real public posting action: review the draft, account, destination, and companion MCP/tool configuration before running 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

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category

Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The skill explicitly advertises the ability to publish content back to Xiaohongshu and includes a workflow ending in --publish, but it does not present a clear user-facing warning or consent checkpoint about sending content to an external platform. This creates a real risk of unintended posting, reputational harm, or disclosure of sensitive/generated content, especially because the skill also frames publishing as part of a routine daily workflow.

Finding

The visible natural-language instructions and description are entirely Chinese, which may impose a language requirement on users without opt-in. The file does not state that the skill is China-specific or provide an alternative language option.
