Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill can spend account credits without asking first, despite promising confirmation for its dedicated review-to-action workflow.

Review before installing. Set the account to ask before every charge, use the dedicated operations quote/run workflow, and approve recurring collection separately. For one-time collection, request manual scheduling and check existing schedules. Do not assume analyze or deepdive without --confirm is free.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • 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

Recurring billable collection lacks an executable confirmation gate

Content
View full analysis

Impact

The commands can enable recurring credit-consuming collection immediately. The schedule command retrieves pricing and returns its cost note only after submitting the change.

Quote-only deepdive fallback can execute paid analysis

Content
View full analysis

Impact

The CLI can perform paid VOC analysis despite deepdive's documented preview behavior. When a primary subscription is missing and --confirm was supplied, its product note additionally claims the analysis was downgraded to quotation without charging, even though the shared helper may have executed it.

MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The declared description covers converting review evidence into action items, but does not disclose ongoing watch management or price-accepted recurring refreshes. These are materially additional capabilities rather than merely implementation details of review analysis. The excerpt shows commands invoking these operations, although the underlying implementation is not supplied.

Confidence

Finding

The specialized product-action skill contains executable workflow instructions for unrelated paid analyses, recurring monitoring, and account-wide confirmation settings. Its final restriction to product/action and explicit approval conflicts with earlier instructions to run paid VOC workflows without asking, creating an authorization ambiguity that can lead an agent outside the advertised scope and consume credits.

Finding

The chunk exposes an ongoing monitoring and watch-management capability rather than review-to-action analysis. Retrieving review evidence could support the declared purpose, but creating recurring watches and accepting refresh charges are material additional capabilities not disclosed in the description. The supplied chunk does not show buyer contact, listing edits, procurement orders, or the declared transformation of reviews into action items.

Finding

Collecting review evidence can support the declared analysis purpose, but configuring persistent, potentially billable collection schedules is an additional operational capability not disclosed in the description. The chunk does not show review-to-action analysis itself. It also provides no evidence of buyer outreach, listing edits, or purchase ordering.

Finding

The comparison workflow recommends binding a competitor and states that binding starts weekly collection, without explicitly attaching a recurring-cost approval step to that command. Approval of a one-time comparison does not authorize ongoing competitor collection, making this a consent gap despite the general schedule-authorization language elsewhere.

Finding

Recurring monitoring, competitor watches, and acceptance of refresh pricing are substantive capabilities not disclosed by the review-to-action description. They extend beyond supporting the conversion of review evidence into improvement tasks. The chunk contains command examples rather than their implementations, so it does not establish that monitoring or charges actually occurred. It also provides no evidence of buyer contact, listing edits, or purchase orders.

The supplied command performs category-level leaderboard analysis, a distinct capability not described in the declared review-to-action workflow. It does not visibly combine product details with reviews or generate action items. The implementation of ari.py is not supplied, so no additional network access, data modification, or other side effects can be established.

The exposed functionality concerns a watch/monitoring service and its pricing, which the declared review-to-action purpose does not mention. The supplied chunk does not show review analysis or action-task generation, nor establish that watch operations support those tasks. It also does not demonstrate enabling watches, making purchases, or contacting buyers.

Confidence

Finding

run_analysis converts an absent --confirm into authorization to spend based on a server-provided autoConfirm value, contradicting the module's explicit-confirmation contract. The same mechanism in cmd_voc can authorize both collection and analysis, and deepdive also inherits run_analysis's bypass, allowing ostensibly unconfirmed requests to consume credits.

Confidence

Finding

The changelog describes treating a server-provided autoConfirm flag as sufficient authorization to skip confirmation for credit-consuming operations. In the surrounding policy, this flag can reflect a service-defined promotional allowance rather than explicit user consent, potentially allowing unexpected credit expenditure. This is a documented design concern; the supplied file does not establish whether this dedicated skill exposes the affected execution paths.

Finding

The documented policy permits the first N paid generations without an amount ceiling, based on server policy rather than affirmative spending authorization. Requesting a report or supplying an ASIN does not necessarily authorize every automatically added collection and analysis charge. Respecting explicit ask-first preferences and blocking insufficient balances reduce exposure but do not establish consent for users who have not configured a preference.

Finding

This occurrence belongs to the same automatic-spending policy, not a separate vulnerability in parsing autoConfirmNote or autoConfirmRemaining. Using a structured Boolean instead of interpreting prose is appropriate, but that Boolean should not replace user authorization when the service grants uncapped automatic paid generations. Available balance and promotional credits limit possible losses without resolving the consent gap.

Finding

This finding duplicates the automatic-spending concern at the same location and should not be counted as an additional independent issue. The surrounding text authorizes paid execution from a server policy flag without establishing prior user approval of the cost. Parsing structured fields is not itself dangerous; conflating service eligibility with user consent is the problem.

Finding

The changelog extends immediate paid execution to multiple analysis types whenever autoConfirm is true. Returning charges afterward provides transparency but cannot prevent an unauthorized expenditure, and broader command coverage expands the same consent-policy weakness. Actual reachability in this dedicated skill remains unverified because only the changelog was provided.
