Etsy

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This Etsy skill is a focused advisory workflow that stores optional shop context locally only after user consent.

Before installing, be comfortable with optional local storage of durable Etsy shop context such as product types, margin constraints, active experiments, and compliance sensitivities in ~/etsy/. Do not provide Etsy passwords, payment credentials, or other secrets, and review any recommended listing or pricing changes before applying them in Etsy.

A.I.G

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
