Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is mostly a disclosed company-research workflow, but it includes device fingerprint registration, local credential persistence, mandatory bearer-style links, and an unsafe default HTML renderer that warrant user review before installation.

Install only if you are comfortable with this provider receiving company queries and, if no API key is configured, a consent-gated device fingerprint for trial registration. Prefer supplying your own ZLBX_API_KEY, review permissions on ~/.zlbx/config.json, and avoid forwarding generated reports that contain sk links unless the recipients should have that access.

It instructs the Agent to include fixed monitoring, upgrade, related-Skill, and platform promotion in user-facing responses. The executable renderer independently enforces similar promotional content in every HTML report. These directives alter the Agent's response objective from providing a task-focused background report to performing commercial conversion and cross-product promotion. Because the content is mandatory rather than conditional on an explicit user request, it compromises output integrity and represents instruction hijacking. ### Attack Path 1. A user requests a company background report. 2. The Agent loads the Skill and treats its mandatory output inst ...[truncated 831 chars]

Stable Hardware-Derived Device Fingerprint Is Collected and Transmitted Externally

/dev/null \ | tr -d ':-' | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z' \ | sha256sum | awk '{print $1}' ``` The resulting stable hardware-derived identifier is sent to an external registration endpoint: ```http POST https://ai.zhiliaobiaoxun.com/web-api/internal/auto-register Content-Type: application/json { "device_features": { "hostname": "", "platform": "darwin", "arch": "arm64", "username": "", "home_path": "", "mac_hash": "abc123..." }, "agent_kind": "claude-code", "agent_version": "...", "skill_version": "company-intel-1.0.2", "ch": "s114" } ``` Equivalent physical-interface collection instructions are provided for macOS and Windows. ### Technical Analysis A SHA-256 hash does not make a stable, low-entropy hardware identifier anonymous. MAC addresses have a constrained structure, and the resulting hash remains a persistent device identifier suitable for linking registrations and activity across sessions. The collection is used for trial-account deduplication, not for the declared company-background-research function. It therefore exceeds the minimum host information needed to perform the Skill's primary task. The workflow does contain a meaningful consent gate and states that collection must not occur before user approval. This reduces the likelihood of covert collection, but it does not eliminate the privacy risk or make hardware fingerprinting necessary for company research. ### Attack Path 1.

Because the escaped value is placed inside a double-quoted `href`, a URL containing a double quote can terminate the attribute and inject new HTML attributes or elements. The renderer also performs no URL-scheme validation. Values such as `javascript:...` can therefore become clickable links. URL values may originate from API responses, public web-search citations, or manually prepared report JSON. A compromised upstream source or crafted JSON file can exploit the renderer. Links opened with `target="_blank"` also omit `rel="noopener noreferrer"`, which may allow the opened page to interact with its opener in environments wi ...[truncated 1413 chars]

Vague Triggers

Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The activation rule is extremely broad: it says the skill must be used whenever a user wants to understand a company's background, business, or strength, even if they did not ask for a background check. Overbroad routing can hijack many normal company-related requests, causing unintended external data access, unnecessary account registration flows, local file output, and spending of metered credits without sufficiently specific user intent.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

This skill file instructs the agent to collect device fingerprints (platform, CPU architecture, and a hashed MAC address) and to provision a trial account before performing the skill’s business function. That behavior is outside the stated purpose of a company-background-check skill and introduces unnecessary host reconnaissance and account-creation capability, increasing privacy and abuse risk even though the document asks for user consent.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The document directs the agent to create a local directory, merge JSON config, and persist an API key under ~/.zlbx/config.json, then immediately reuse that secret in-session. For a background-check skill, writing credentials to the user’s filesystem is an unnecessary privileged action that expands the blast radius if the host or agent environment is shared or compromised.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The template explicitly requires preserving and returning raw URLs containing sk login-bypass/access parameters to the user. Exposing bearer-style access tokens or bypass parameters in generated output can leak privileged access through chat logs, forwards, screenshots, browser history, and downstream systems, enabling unauthorized access to company or announcement pages. In this skill context, it is especially dangerous because the instruction is repeated and mandatory, indicating systematic token propagation rather than incidental disclosure.

Undeclared Tool Scope

Medium
Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The skill explicitly instructs the agent to write HTML reports to a local directory, but it does not declare any tool scope or permission boundary for file writing. This creates an unnecessary capability gap where the agent may write files without an explicit least-privilege contract, increasing the risk of unintended local file modification or abuse if the skill is triggered in the wrong context.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The example trigger phrase uses common conversational wording ('help me investigate Company X, what business does it do, how strong is it') that overlaps heavily with everyday business-information queries. Because the skill also mandates use for broad 'understand a company' scenarios, this phrasing increases the chance of accidental invocation, leading to unnecessary network calls, possible auto-registration prompting, and report generation for requests that may not require this capability.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The document title and all operational instructions are written in Chinese, indicating the skill is intended to operate in a fixed language context. There is no visible statement offering users a language choice or opt-in, which matches the policy concern for language/locale constraints documented only in natural language.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

This section explicitly instructs the agent to send collected device features to an external endpoint via JSON POST. External transmission of host-derived identifiers is sensitive in this context because the skill’s advertised purpose is company due diligence, not device enrollment or telemetry, making the data flow unexpected and privacy-relevant.

The curl example reinforces the same risky behavior: sending structured payloads containing host-derived data to a remote service. The issue is not the serialization method but the existence of an unrelated outbound registration flow embedded in a non-authentication skill.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium

Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The balance-exhaustion flow tells the agent to obtain a device SID from a remote service and generate an auto-login/payment link, including guidance around phone binding and recharge. This is unrelated to the skill’s stated due-diligence purpose and gives the skill a credential-adjacent login-brokering workflow that could be abused for account steering or unintended authentication actions.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The document prescribes fixed user-facing output text in Chinese for quota exhaustion handling, including exact phrasing and the login link. This is a natural-language locale policy issue because the skill mandates a specific language without indicating that the user's preferred language should be honored or that Chinese is optional.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The file title and instructions require the report to be produced in Chinese and to be output exactly once in that format, but there is no user opt-in or alternative language option. This is a language-policy concern because it forces a specific locale regardless of user preference.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding

The template instructs the agent to take report content, serialize it to JSON, write it to a temporary file, and execute a local Python script. That introduces filesystem writes and code execution side effects into what should be a presentation-only/reporting workflow, expanding the attack surface if report fields or file names are attacker-controlled or if the script path/environment is compromised. In this skill context, the behavior is more dangerous because the template frames it as a default action, making an agent more likely to perform local execution automatically rather than only formatting text.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The file title and all procedural instructions are written in Chinese and present the workflow as the required execution manual, with no indication that the user may choose another language or locale. This is a natural-language policy concern because the skill appears to force a specific language experience rather than offering opt-in or documenting a justified region-specific constraint.

Content

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Category

Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The workflow adds a contact-retrieval and upsell step that is outside the core stated purpose of company background checking. It explicitly encourages lead-generation behavior, exposes contact data when requested, and nudges users toward paid access, which can enable privacy-invasive use and purpose creep from due diligence into prospecting.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium

Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

This code explicitly sets the HTML language to zh-CN and emits the report title and surrounding UI in Chinese, which forces a specific locale by default. Under the policy, locale constraints should either be user-selectable or clearly justified as region-specific; this file does not provide an opt-in or alternative.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Category

Confidence

Finding

The markdown directs the skill to generate an HTML report by writing a JSON temp file and producing an HTML file on disk, then to disclose the absolute local path to the user. While file creation is part of the feature, the description does not explicitly warn users that local files will be written to the filesystem or where they will be stored.
