Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill fits its Douyin comment-analysis purpose, with disclosed credentials, service charges, and external software dependencies.

Use this for Douyin posts you select and set page or item limits to control charges. Keep the API key in supported secret storage or an untracked local settings file. Prefer a reviewed, pinned CLI version with access only to needed credentials. The bundled instructions were fully inspected; external package behavior and publisher identity remain unverified.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
Findings (5)

The activation rule includes generic requests such as audience feedback, pain points, FAQ extraction, and discussion summaries without explicitly requiring a Douyin comment-analysis context.

Finding

The activation sentence independently lists generic tasks such as audience feedback and FAQ extraction without requiring a Douyin context. This can incorrectly route unrelated requests into an external, potentially billable data workflow. The Douyin-specific title and required content identifiers reduce the likelihood and impact, and there is no evidence of deliberate malicious redirection.

MCP Rug Pull
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding

The command executes socialdatax-skills@latest with automatic npm confirmation, allowing the code executed to change without review. A compromised package release could execute with the agent's permissions and access inherited credentials, including SOCIALDATAX_API_KEY; the skill's read-only description does not constrain package execution. This is a direct CLI supply-chain risk, not an MCP-server configuration issue as the finding labels it.

MCP Rug Pull
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding

The URL-based example also automatically executes a mutable @latest npm package rather than an approved release. If a future release or its dependencies are compromised, execution could expose the agent's environment credentials or accessible files. The legitimate comment-retrieval purpose does not remove this supply-chain exposure.

MCP Rug Pull
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding

The replies command repeats the same mutable-package execution risk by using npx -y socialdatax-skills@latest. An attacker controlling a subsequently selected release could run arbitrary code with the agent's access, despite the intended operation being read-only. This is another occurrence of the same root cause, not an independent attack mechanism.

Finding

npx commands without a version suffix (e.g. @1.0.0) create a rug-pull risk if the upstream server is compromised and publishes a malicious update.
