Pans Discovery Playbook

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a straightforward Chinese sales discovery playbook that generates local Markdown or JSON guidance and does not show hidden access, network use, persistence, or credential handling.

Before installing, know that this skill is mainly useful for Chinese-speaking AI infrastructure sales workflows. It can write generated output to a path you provide with --output, so choose that path deliberately. I found no evidence of hidden network access, credential use, persistence, or destructive behavior.

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

Undeclared Tool Scope

MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
70% confidence
Finding

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

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The manifest description is entirely written as Chinese-language output guidance for the skill and does not indicate that users may choose another language. This can constitute a language/locale policy violation when a skill implicitly enforces a specific language without opt-in.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The trigger phrases are very broad and overlap with ordinary sales-conversation language, which can cause the skill to activate in unrelated contexts. Over-broad activation increases the chance of unintended behavior, prompt hijacking of general conversations, or inappropriate insertion of sales guidance when the user did not explicitly request this skill.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
85% confidence
Finding

This code file includes user-facing natural-language descriptions and CLI help text that default to Chinese, which can impose a language/locale constraint on users without opt-in. The policy allows locale constraints only when explicitly offered as a choice or clearly documented as justified, which is not present here.
