Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a static Chinese-language ByteDance information guide with no executable behavior, data access, or persistence.

Before installing, understand that this appears to be a static informational skill, not a live data source. Some company, financial, executive, regulatory, and product details may be outdated and should be verified against current official or reputable sources for important decisions.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding
The natural-language description and heading instruct and present the skill entirely in Chinese, which can amount to a language policy constraint if users are not given an opt-in or alternative language option. The file does not state that the skill is intentionally limited to Chinese-speaking users or provide a language-selection mechanism.

Vague Triggers

Low
Confidence
83% confidence
Finding
This markdown file describes the skill as providing comprehensive ByteDance information queries, but it does not define explicit trigger phrases, activation constraints, or exclusion conditions. In a skill-routing context, such broad wording can overlap with many ordinary requests about ByteDance and make it unclear when this skill should or should not activate.
