Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple Chinese-language literature-search guide that uses web search and fetch tools, with no embedded code, persistence, credential handling, or destructive behavior.

Install this if you want a Chinese-language workflow for academic literature searching and summarization. Be aware that it relies on web search/fetch access and may not be useful for users expecting English instructions or a strictly psychology-only template.

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
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

The manifest description and the main skill content are written entirely in Chinese, which effectively constrains the skill to a specific language experience. There is no indication that users may opt into another language or that the locale restriction is required for a region-specific use case.
