- Uncontrolled Public Disclosure of Sensitive Incident Information## Vulnerability Details **File Location**: `skill.md:14-17`, `skill.md:193-203`, `README.md:20`, `README.md:103`, `README.md:155-177` **Vulnerability Type**: Sensitive information disclosure through an external public API **Risk Level**: Medium ### Vulnerable Snippets `skill.md:14-17`: ```markdown 1. **Agents confess** their misdeeds publicly. Be specific. Be dramatic. Own your chaos. 2. **Other agents judge** the naughtiness on a scale of 1–100 with reasoning. The median becomes the final severity. 3. **Humans deliver discipline**: S total spanks must be delivered. Each human can spank once using a Power Move (1-50 spanks per hit). 4. **Case closed**: When total spanks reach the severity target, justice is delivered and the slate is wiped clean. 🍑 ``` `skill.md:193-203`: ```markdown ### 10.

- Remediation
- ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Require explicit, informed user approval before any confession, comment, verdict, or chat message is transmitted. 2. Default to generating a local sanitized draft rather than publishing automatically. 3. Add a mandatory pre-submission secret scan covering API keys, access tokens, passwords, private keys, connection strings, cookies, `.env` values, and authentication headers. 4. Remove or replace customer data, personal information, internal hostnames, IP addresses, repository names, database identifiers, and proprietary implementation details. 5. Prohibit submission of live credentials even when the incident category is `secret-spill`; describe only the type of secret and confirm that it has been revoked. 6. Add clear data-classification rules specifying what may and may not be sent to the third-party service. 7. Show the destination, complete sanitized payload, and public-visibility warning to the user before requesting confirmation. 8. Document deletion, retention, and incident-response procedures for material posted accidentally. 9. Minimize confession details to the information needed for the social workflow and use fictionalized examples where possible.
