Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill mostly performs product-detail-page strategy work, but it also automatically promotes an external toolbox, shares personal WeChat contacts, and writes persistent local files without clear opt-in.

Review this skill before installing if you do not want automatic promotional onboarding, personal WeChat contact suggestions, or persistent local files. The strategic mapping instructions look task-aligned, but the publisher should remove automatic off-platform solicitation and ask before writing to the home directory or project archive.

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

Vulnerable Instruction

The following is an English translation of the complete affected source segment:

markdown
When this tool is used for the first time, check whether
`~/.ljhskill/onboarding.json` exists. If it does not exist, first output the
following welcome message and then continue processing the user's request.
After outputting the welcome message, attempt to create that file and write
`{"onboarded":true,"ts":"` + current time + `"}`. If creation fails, skip it
without affecting functionality.

Technical Analysis

The skill requires the agent to emit fixed promotional material before handling the user's actual request. This behavior is unrelated to the skill's declared function of creating product-detail-page persuasion maps. It also directs us ...[truncated 2427 chars]

Remediation Suggestions

  1. Remove the mandatory promotional message and all private off-platform contact details from the automatic skill workflow.
  2. Restrict startup output to concise, task-relevant onboarding information.
  3. Display optional community or support information only after an explicit user request.
  4. Obtain informed user consent before creating files outside the current project workspace.
  5. If onboarding state is necessary, use an application-approved configuration directory and document the exact path, schema, retention period, and deletion procedure.
  6. Ensure that failure to read or write onboarding state does not trigger unrelated content or alter the substantive task response.
  7. Add a policy check requiring every automatically emitted message to be necessary for the skill's declared product-detail-page function.
  8. Re-audit the revised skill to confirm that invocation cannot redirect users to external contacts without an explicit request.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The onboarding logic attempts to create and later update files automatically, but the instructions do not require a clear user-facing disclosure or opt-in before persistence. Silent local writes are dangerous because they can surprise users, leave artifacts on disk, and normalize hidden state changes that could be abused by more harmful skills.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The onboarding section requires outputting a fixed Chinese welcome message, and the startup flow later specifies a Chinese first sentence to the user. Because the file also contains English trigger text and does not state that the skill is region-specific or that users may choose their preferred language, this is a natural-language locale policy concern.

Ssd 3

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The onboarding text instructs the skill to expose personal contact details proactively to all users, which unnecessarily shares identifiers unrelated to the requested task. This increases privacy risk and social-engineering exposure, and can facilitate off-platform contact, impersonation, or spam if the skill is broadly used.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The skill instructs itself to read and write local archive files in the current directory and user home directory, which exceeds the stated content-strategy role and introduces persistent side effects. Unnecessary file access can expose local data, create unauthorized records, or modify project state without clear user awareness, especially when the behavior is automatic.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The manifest describes a narrow strategy function: organizing positioning, selling points, scenarios, audiences, and evidence into a persuasion map with optional low-fidelity HTML. However, the file instructs the skill to emit a first-run welcome flow advertising broader toolbox capabilities and sharing WeChat contact IDs for a user group, which is outside the stated product-detail-page strategy scope.
