Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed meeting-prep and note-distillation workflow with sensitive meeting-data handling that fits its stated academic group-meeting purpose.

Before installing, confirm your group is comfortable with meeting transcripts, participant-linked action items, summaries, and topic profiles being used to update an academic knowledge base. Use the stated opt-out for local method-tag logging if you do not want usage-derived optimization data retained.

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
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

The skill explicitly describes pulling Tencent Meeting transcripts, participant information, action items, and post-meeting distillation into an academic knowledge base, but it does not present a prominent, specific warning that this discussion-derived content may be retained and reused across sessions. In an academic meeting context, transcripts and attendee-linked action items can contain sensitive unpublished research, internal decisions, or personal data, so insufficient disclosure can lead to unexpected persistence and secondary use of sensitive information.
