Star Sign / Horoscope Inquiry - 星座运势查询

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a straightforward horoscope lookup skill that uses a Jisu API key and sends limited horoscope query data to JisuAPI.

Install only if you are comfortable giving the skill a JisuAPI AppKey and allowing outbound requests to JisuAPI for horoscope data. Avoid auto-loading returned plain-HTTP icon URLs unless your client proxies or upgrades them safely.

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

Category
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.

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Undeclared Tool Scope

Medium
Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The skill declares use of environment variables and, by design, makes outbound API requests, but it does not explicitly declare a tool/permission scope such as allowed network access or env usage. This weakens least-privilege controls and makes it harder for a host agent to enforce or review what capabilities the skill should have.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The description is written as an activation/instruction sentence entirely in Chinese and specifies user utterances only in Chinese, which implies the skill is intended to operate in a fixed language. The file does not offer user opt-in for language choice or explain that the skill is intentionally limited to a Chinese-speaking locale or audience.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The skill documentation includes external resource URLs over plain HTTP for icon images. If clients or downstream renderers fetch these URLs, content can be intercepted or modified in transit, enabling tracking, mixed-content issues, or malicious payload substitution depending on the consumer.

Finding

This finding is the same class of issue: a plain-HTTP external image URL is present in example output. Even though it appears in documentation, agents or UIs may treat such fields as fetchable resources, creating an avoidable insecure outbound request path.
