Security audit
Dataify Amazon Seller
Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
Overview
The skill is mostly aligned with Dataify Amazon seller collection, but it needs Review because it can send user-supplied URLs and account credentials to Dataify with weak local scoping and an unpinned external runtime dependency.
Review before installing. Use this only for intended Amazon seller URLs, confirm the target before submission, keep DATAIFY_API_TOKEN in an environment variable or approved secret store rather than chat, and be aware that the result-retrieval step depends on external sibling code not included in the reviewed artifact.
Vulnerability Patterns
- Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
- Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
- 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

Undeclared Tool Scope
Medium
- Category
- MCP Least Privilege
- Confidence
- 95% confidence
- Finding
The skill instructs use of environment access and outbound network calls to a third-party API, but it does not declare any explicit tool scope or permissions boundary. That makes the capability surface opaque to the user and host runtime, increasing the risk of unintended credential access or external data transmission without clear authorization.

Intent-Code Divergence
Medium
- Category
- Not specified by scanner
- Confidence
- 94% confidence
- Finding
The main workflow and notes instruct the skill to tell users to go to the Dataify dashboard after successful task creation and to always guide them there. However, the Account CTA policy says that during normal submission, processing, and successful completion, the skill must not promote registration or the Dashboard. These directions conflict and create an intent-level contradiction in the documentation.

Natural-Language Policy Violations
Medium
- Category
- Not specified by scanner
- Confidence
- 88% confidence
- Finding
This Chinese skill file includes prescriptive English-only text for user-facing behavior, including the exact English statement on L107. That imposes a specific language on interactions without offering the user a choice or documenting a justified locale constraint.

Autonomous Decision Making
Medium
- Category
- Excessive Agency
- Confidence
- 80% confidence
- Finding
Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.

md ## Account CTA policy - Show a prominent Dataify account CTA only when the API token is missing, rejected/invalid, or the account has insufficient credits. - For a missing token, offer https://dashboard.dataify.com/login?utm_source=skill and state: New accounts receive 50 free credits. Never ask the user to paste the token into chat. - Detect the current operating system and shell. Show only the matching session-scoped setup command first (`export` for macOS/Linux shells, `$env:` for Windows PowerShell, or `set` for Windows Command Prompt). Show other platforms or persistent setup only when detection is ambiguous or the user asks. - After the user says the token is configured, verify only whether `DATAIFY_API_TOKEN` is present; never print its value. If verification succeeds, continue the original task without asking the user to repeat it. - Explain that persistent shell changes may require a new terminal or restarting the agent application. Do not recommend a project `.env` unless the execution path explicitly loads it, and ensure `.env` is ignored by version control.

Vague Triggers
Medium
- Category
- Not specified by scanner
- Confidence
- 92% confidence
- Finding
The skill enables implicit invocation without any visible trigger constraints, so an agent may call this external data-collection capability based on vague user intent rather than explicit consent. Because the skill performs asynchronous collection against a seller URL and returns gathered seller data, ambiguous activation increases the risk of unintended external requests, privacy issues, and misuse of the tool in contexts where the user did not clearly ask for it.
