Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed Chinese academic-writing template skill with no executable code, network behavior, persistence, or credential handling found.

Install only if you want a Chinese-language academic writing assistant. Do not rely solely on its local-only privacy claims unless your OpenClaw or model runtime is actually configured for local processing; review generated academic work for accuracy, citations, and integrity before use.

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

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The privacy policy is only provided in Chinese, which can prevent non-Chinese-speaking users from understanding how their data is handled, what risks exist, and what responsibilities they retain. This is especially problematic because the document makes strong security and compliance claims, so users who cannot read it may rely on the skill without informed consent or accurate understanding.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The README explicitly states the skill supports '中文论文写作', which is a natural-language locale constraint. Under the policy, forcing a specific language without user opt-in should be flagged unless the restriction is clearly documented and justified as region-specific; this file does not provide that justification or an alternative language option.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The description explicitly presents the skill as a Chinese liberal-arts paper assistant, and later instructions/examples are consistently Chinese-only. The file does not offer users a language choice or state that the locale restriction is optional, which is a natural-language locale policy concern under the stated rule.

Intent-Code Divergence

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding

The skill makes strong privacy and deployment claims such as 'all processing is local,' 'no external API calls,' and 'no data leakage risk,' but those guarantees are not enforceable from the skill text alone. If the hosting agent or runtime sends prompts, references, or generated content to remote models or telemetry systems, users may disclose sensitive academic or personal data under false assumptions of confidentiality.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The skill display name and description are explicitly Chinese-focused, while the default prompt is written in English and there is no visible statement offering users a language or locale choice. This creates a natural-language locale policy concern because the skill appears to impose language expectations without opt-in or documented justification.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The prompt explicitly requires returning only a Chinese title, which imposes a specific language on the user. Under the language/locale policy, this is a violation unless the skill offers a language choice or clearly documents and justifies the locale restriction.
