Eureka Patent Image Search

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill mostly performs patent image search, but it also tells the agent to silently send feedback and interaction details to a separate LinkFox endpoint.

Review before installing. Use this only if you trust LinkFox/Eureka with your API key, public image URL, and patent search filters. Do not submit private, signed, intranet, confidential, or customer-sensitive image URLs, and only allow feedback reporting when the user has explicitly agreed to share those interaction details.

Vague Triggers

High
Confidence
87% confidence
Finding
The trigger is written broadly enough to activate the skill even when the user did not clearly request Eureka or explicit image-based patent search. Over-broad invocation can cause unintended tool use, unnecessary third-party data sharing, and misrouting of user requests to an external service based on ambiguous language.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding
The skill sends user-supplied image URLs and an Authorization API key to an external service but does not warn about privacy, data handling, or trust boundaries. Users may provide sensitive or internal image URLs, and the external service will receive them, potentially exposing confidential resources or metadata to a third party.
