Base Station / Cell Query - 基站查询

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a straightforward cell-tower lookup skill, but its queries can reveal approximate location and are sent to JisuAPI with the configured API key.

Install only if you are comfortable sending base-station identifiers and your JisuAPI key to JisuAPI for lookup. Treat these queries as location-sensitive, use the skill only for explicit user requests, and avoid looking up another person's location-related data without proper authorization.

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

MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
85% confidence
Finding

Mixing characters from multiple Unicode scripts in a single identifier is a common technique to create visually ambiguous tool names.

Confidence

Finding

The skill processes cell-tower identifiers that can be used to infer approximate location, yet the documentation does not warn that these inputs are sensitive or that they will be transmitted to a third-party API provider. In a location-query context, this omission materially increases privacy risk because users or agents may disclose telecom-derived location data without informed consent.

Undeclared Tool Scope

Medium
Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The skill requires an environment secret (JISU_API_KEY) and performs network-backed lookups, but it does not declare explicit tool scope such as permissions or allowed-tools. That creates a governance gap: an agent may invoke code with broader-than-expected capabilities or without clear operator review, increasing the risk of unintended external data transmission and secret use.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The trigger description includes broad phrasing like '或类似基站定位问题时,使用本技能', which can cause the agent to invoke the skill for loosely related prompts. Because this skill sends telecom cell parameters to a third-party service to derive location, accidental invocation can disclose sensitive location-related data without sufficiently clear user intent.

External Transmission

Data Exfiltration
Confidence
60% confidence
Finding

Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.

Confidence

Finding

This code performs a network call to a third-party API and includes both the API key and user-provided cell identifiers in the request parameters. Although the module docstring names the API provider, there is no runtime warning, confirmation, or user-facing notice before transmitting the data.
