Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill performs scoped product research through a disclosed external service, with no evidence of hidden access or harmful actions.

Use product phrases you are comfortable sharing with Crawlora and the queried services. Generalize confidential launch details, supply your own Crawlora API key securely, and check API credit costs before running larger research sessions.

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
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Output HandlingUnvalidated Output Injection, Cross-Context Output, Unbounded Output
  • MCP Least PrivilegeUnderdeclared Capability, Wildcard Permission, Missing Permission Declaration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
Findings (7)

Skill declares no tool scope ('permissions' or 'allowed-tools') but code capabilities were detected: shell.

Finding

Without declared permissions the skill's intent is opaque and cannot be validated.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

The workflow sends user-supplied product ideas to third-party search services without a privacy warning.

Output Handling
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The workflow instructs the agent to submit the user's seed phrase and selected related phrases to Google Suggest, Amazon autocomplete, and Google Trends. It does not warn that these queries disclose potentially confidential product-launch concepts to external services; describing the retrieved evidence as public data does not address the privacy of the submitted queries.

Finding

Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.

Only the endpoints used by this workflow. Call them via `scripts/crawlora.sh` (see SKILL.md).

All paths are relative to the API base `https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1` and require the header `x-api-key: $CRAWLORA_API_KEY`. Path params like `{id}` are substituted into the URL; `GET` params go in the query string; `POST` params go in a JSON body.

**18 endpoints across 5 platform group(s).**
