Security audit

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed Chinese-language security helper that scans user-selected files, creates redacted copies, and can run a user-confirmed API capability check without hidden persistence or deceptive behavior.

Install this only if you are comfortable with a Chinese-language local security helper. Use explicit input and output paths, review audit plans before removing --plan, and provide API credentials only for endpoints you trust. Treat scan results as review leads, not proof that a file or model is safe.

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

MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
This finding similarly indicates that the documented scope substantially exceeds the real behavior, with the implementation reportedly limited to local text redaction rather than the broader security inspection and API assessment described. In a security-oriented skill, overstated coverage is especially risky because it can create false assurance and cause operators to skip independent review or send insufficiently protected data onward.

Finding
Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.

Finding
YARA rule matched a hack tool or exploit indicator (offensive tools, reconnaissance, privilege escalation, or exploit frameworks).

Lp3

Medium
Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill declares operational behaviors that involve local file access, file writing, environment access, and optional network-based API auditing, but it does not define an explicit tool scope or permission boundary. In an agent environment, missing scope declarations can cause the host or operator to underestimate the skill’s effective capabilities, increasing the risk of unintended file, credential, or network access.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The skill enables implicit invocation unconditionally, which allows the platform to auto-trigger this skill without explicit user selection or narrowly defined trigger constraints. For a security-sensitive skill that inspects files, skills, and model APIs, broad implicit activation increases the chance of unintended processing of sensitive inputs, surprising tool execution, or abuse through prompt/context manipulation.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The file's user-facing natural-language content is entirely in Chinese, including the title and operational description. Under the policy, forcing a specific language without user opt-in or documented justification is a natural-language policy violation.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
This JSON file contains user-facing natural-language fields such as "reason" and "recommendation" exclusively in Chinese. Under the policy rules, forcing a specific language without offering a choice or documenting a justified locale constraint is a natural-language policy violation.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The task prompts explicitly require Chinese responses such as '只输出 JSON' and include Chinese-language content, which imposes a language choice on the model behavior. The file does not indicate that this is user-selectable or justified as a region-specific tool, so it conflicts with the language/locale policy criterion.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding
This code transmits user-supplied prompts and API credentials to configured remote endpoints without an in-code confirmation or explicit last-mile consent step. In the context of a security-audit skill, users may paste sensitive samples for inspection, so silent transmission to third-party services creates a real risk of unintended disclosure despite the presence of some SSRF-style hostname checks.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The manifest says the skill can be used for '模型质量对照', which implies comparing a target model against a user-specified reference model. Although the code loads an optional reference endpoint, it never sends any requests to that reference model and explicitly returns consistency status 'not_implemented_v0_1', so the implemented behavior falls short of the described capability.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
Line L8 contains user-facing natural-language strings in Chinese only, including the limitations text and summary, with no indication that the skill is China-specific or that users may choose another language. This creates a locale/language policy concern because the skill appears to enforce a specific language without opt-in.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding
The code returns and raises user-visible messages entirely in Chinese, including errors and summary text, with no apparent opt-in or locale selection. This can violate language/locale policy when the skill is not clearly documented as China-specific or offering a user choice.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The generated report strings such as the title, field labels, and fallback messages are all fixed in Chinese. This imposes a specific language on users without any visible opt-in or justification that the skill is intended only for a Chinese-speaking or region-specific context.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The exception messages on these lines are hard-coded in Chinese, and additional user-facing Chinese strings also appear later in the file. This creates a language/locale restriction in natural-language output without any visible opt-in or justification that the skill is intended only for Chinese-speaking users.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
These lines return or raise natural-language messages entirely in Chinese, including status summaries and limitations text. Because the file does not offer language selection or explain a China-specific scope, the code appears to force a specific language on all users.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The display name, description, and default prompt all force a single language presentation, which can violate language/locale policy when no user opt-in or locale justification is provided. There is no indication that this skill is intentionally limited to Chinese-speaking users or a China-specific compliance context.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
This markdown file contains user-facing natural language entirely in Chinese and does not indicate that language selection is optional or configurable. Under the stated policy, forcing a specific language without user opt-in is a locale/language policy violation.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The file's title and full description are written only in Chinese, which can constitute a language/locale policy issue when no user opt-in or justification is provided. The stated policy specifically calls for flagging content that forces a specific language without user choice.

Intent-Code Divergence

Low
Confidence
86% confidence
Finding
The generated plan includes a 'reference' field and doubles planned requests when a reference is supplied, implying that both target and reference models will be exercised. In the actual execution path, only the target endpoint is queried and the returned consistency field is hardcoded to 'not_implemented_v0_1', which contradicts that implied intent.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Confidence
78% confidence
Finding
The function creates parent directories and writes a redacted output file, which changes the filesystem, but the code provides no confirmation prompt, print/log message, or inline warning describing this side effect. Although the function name suggests output generation, this file alone does not visibly disclose the write operation to the user.
