Seller Audit

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a markdown-only ecommerce seller account audit guide with no executable behavior or hidden agent instructions.

Before installing, understand that the skill will guide you through reviewing seller dashboards and business-sensitive account data. Use it with accounts you are authorized to audit and avoid pasting credentials or unnecessary private customer data into the agent.

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
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.

1. **Only auditing when something breaks** — Reactive audits find problems after they cost you. Monthly proactive audits prevent most account crises.
2. **Not tracking metric thresholds explicitly** — Know your exact thresholds for each platform. "My ODR is fine" isn't good enough — know that it's at 0.6% vs. a 1% limit.
3. **Ignoring yellow-flag metrics** — Metrics within 20% of threshold need immediate attention, not monitoring.
4. **Not reading policy update emails** — Platform policy changes without warning. Subscribe to seller newsletters and review them weekly.
5. **Fixing violations without root cause analysis** — Removing the violation doesn't fix the system that caused it. Identify root cause or the violation recurs.
6. **Single point of failure on account access** — If your account manager leaves and they're the only admin, you're locked out. Maintain redundant authorized users.
7. **Letting stranded inventory sit** — Stranded FBA inventory costs storage fees and hurts your IPI. Build a weekly stranded inventory clearing process.
