Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a Hausa-language guidance-only skill for PowPow account registration and subscription activation, with no bundled code or hidden execution behavior.

Install this only if you want Hausa guidance for PowPow registration. Registration and payment should happen directly on the official PowPow, PayPal, WeChat, or Huawei interfaces; do not give the agent your password, verification code, or payment credentials.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium

Not specified by scanner
Confidence
79% confidence
Finding

The skill description is written entirely in Hausa and does not indicate that other languages are supported or that Hausa is a justified locale-specific requirement. This can violate language/locale policy expectations when users are not given an explicit choice or opt-in.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The manifest sets the skill language to "ha" on L14, while other fields include Chinese text and do not explain that the skill is intentionally region- or language-specific. This can violate language/locale policy because it hard-codes a specific language without offering user choice or documenting a justified constraint.

Finding

The entire skill reference is written in Hausa, while embedded UI strings show the product may otherwise use English. There is no indication that the user opted into Hausa or that this document is intentionally restricted to a Hausa-only locale, which creates a language/locale policy concern.

Confidence

Finding

This markdown file contains user-facing operational guidance exclusively in Hausa, while also referencing system messages in Chinese, with no indication that users can choose another language or that the skill is intentionally region- or locale-specific. That can violate language/locale policy because it forces a specific language experience without explicit opt-in or justification.
