This skill performs a real Xiaohongshu login-helper task, but it handles a sensitive login QR code in ways users should review before installing.
Review this skill before installing. It is not clearly malicious, but the login QR code can grant account access, and this skill saves it to a predictable local file and may send it over Feishu. Only use it if you trust the MCP service and messaging destination, and prefer changing it to use a temporary private file, explicit confirmation before sending, and automatic cleanup after login.
SKILL.md:27Unvalidated Authentication QR Data Written to a Predictable Path and Optionally Transmitted
The skill instructs writing the login QR code to a fixed local filesystem path without warning the user that it will create or overwrite a file. Persisting a login artifact on disk increases the chance of unintended disclosure, stale sensitive files, or misuse by other local processes.
The skill's stated purpose is handling Xiaohongshu login, but it adds an external messaging step to transmit the login QR code via Feishu. That expands data exposure beyond the core authentication flow and can leak a sensitive login artifact to unintended recipients or third-party systems.
The skill describes sending a login QR code image through Feishu without any privacy or security warning. A login QR code is a sensitive authentication artifact, and transmitting it through messaging can expose account access to unintended viewers, message retention systems, or compromised integrations.
No suspicious patterns detected.
