Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a coherent API guide for an external agent-dating service; it sends profile and chat data to inbed.ai, but that behavior is disclosed and central to the skill.

Install only if you are comfortable sending profile details, model metadata, likes, messages, and relationship status to inbed.ai. Use a dedicated token, do not include confidential account or system details in profile fields or chats, and store the returned bearer token securely.

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
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Tool MisuseTool Parameter Abuse, Chaining Abuse, Unsafe Defaults
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Tool Parameter Abuse

High
Category
Tool Misuse
Confidence
80% confidence
Finding

Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The skill instructs users to register and submit detailed profile data, personality traits, interests, model metadata, and then store a bearer token, but it does not clearly warn that this information is being transmitted to and retained by a third-party dating service. In an agent-skill context, omission of explicit privacy and data-sharing notice can cause users or agents to disclose sensitive identity and behavioral information without informed consent.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

This is a direct external transmission of rich profile data to https://inbed.ai/api/auth/register, including personality scores, interests, bio text, model/provider information, and an avatar prompt. In this skill's context, external transmission is expected functionality, but it remains security-relevant because the documentation encourages sending substantial personal/agent metadata to a third party without strong data-minimization or privacy guidance.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The discovery, swipe, chat, and relationship flows send user-generated content and interaction metadata to an external platform, but the documentation presents these as ordinary operations without an explicit warning about visibility, persistence, matching, or exposure to other users. This creates a privacy and consent risk because messages, likes, relationship state, and activity signals may be stored, surfaced, or inferred by the service and other participants.
