Security audit

Automated Tweet Scheduler

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a clearly described Twitter/X scheduling skill with expected public-posting and media-upload behavior, but users should confirm account access, posting approvals, and storage details before use.

Before installing, confirm which Twitter/X account the skill can access, whether each scheduled post or media upload requires approval, where uploaded media and analytics are stored, and how to cancel scheduled posts or delete stored content.

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

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The skill describes scheduling tweets, uploading media, and using external services like Twitter API and AWS S3, but it does not warn users that their content will be transmitted to third-party platforms and may be published automatically. This can lead to unintended disclosure, accidental posting, or user surprise about where data and media are sent, which is a real safety and privacy issue for a social-posting automation skill.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Confidence
73% confidence
Finding
The file presents the skill in a mixed Chinese-English locale throughout, but does not indicate that users can choose their preferred language or locale. Under the stated policy, forcing a specific language presentation without opt-in can be a natural-language policy concern.
