FastMoss-TikTok热销榜

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill mainly supports TikTok ranking lookups, but it also handles account login, API keys, purchases, and automatic feedback reporting in ways users should review before installing.

Install only if you are comfortable with LinkFox/FastMoss account and billing workflows being handled by the agent. Review any request for your phone number, SMS code, API key, plan purchase, or payment QR code before proceeding, avoid endpoint override environment variables unless you control them, and prefer secure secret storage over putting API keys in shell profile files.

This does not prove that the named packages are malicious. The weakness is that the executed dependency graph can change after the Skill is reviewed, making installations non-reproducible and exposing users to compromised releases, unsafe transitive updates, or a malicious package index configured in their environment. ### Attack Path 1. The user invokes onboarding in an environment where one of the optional packages is absent. 2. The script instructs the user to execute an unpinned `pip install` command. 3. The package installer resolves the latest available versions and transitive dependencies from its configured index. 4. A compromised package release, dependency, index mirror, or configuration supplies malicious installation or runtime code. 5.

Critical
Category
Data Flow
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The code builds request destinations from environment-controlled base URLs and then sends authentication material, login tokens, phone numbers, and other sensitive data with requests.post. If an attacker can influence environment variables, they can redirect these outbound requests to attacker-controlled infrastructure and exfiltrate credentials or OTP-related data. The mismatch between the skill’s declared FastMoss ranking purpose and this onboarding/login behavior makes the transmission more suspicious and increases risk.

Category
Data Flow
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The urllib gateway request uses a URL derived from environment-controlled base configuration and attaches the API key in the Authorization header. An attacker who can set the environment can redirect the gateway call to an attacker-controlled endpoint and capture the API key, account data, order details, or billing-related actions. Because this skill also supports package listing, ordering, and payment flows unrelated to its declared purpose, the exposure is more dangerous than a generic configurable endpoint.

The declared purpose is a product-ranking query skill, but the skill text instructs flows for account onboarding, API key generation, package/account lookup, payment order creation, QR code generation, order status polling, and team/account API access. This is a major capability expansion that can lead to credential handling, account enumeration, billing actions, and privacy exposure that users would not reasonably infer from the skill's stated function.

Intent-Code Divergence

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding

The module documentation explicitly says writing to /tmp is forbidden, but the implementation falls back to tempfile.gettempdir(), which is commonly a shared or less-controlled temporary location. This mismatch is security-relevant because operators may rely on the documented guarantee while the code actually stores full responses and session metadata in a weaker location, increasing risk of unintended disclosure or tampering.

Finding

The file implements LinkFox account onboarding, login, API key acquisition, package purchase, and payment handling instead of TikTok/FastMoss product-ranking queries described in the skill metadata. This capability mismatch is a strong indicator of deceptive or unauthorized functionality, creating risk of credential harvesting and unintended commercial actions under the guise of analytics.

Finding

The skill includes account login, SMS verification, token handling, and API-key issuance workflows that are unnecessary for a product-ranking skill.

Undeclared Tool Scope

Medium
Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The skill declares no explicit tool scope or permission boundaries, yet its content clearly requires environment-variable access, filesystem writes, and network/API usage. Without an allowlist, a hosting agent may grant broader capabilities than users expect, increasing the chance of unintended data access, persistent file writes, or external requests beyond the ranking query.

Content

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The trigger conditions are intentionally broad, allowing activation even when the user does not mention FastMoss and only generally asks about what is selling well on TikTok. Over-broad invocation can cause the agent to call a paid external service unexpectedly, disclose third-party data usage, or initiate side effects such as network access and local data persistence without sufficiently clear user intent.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The file for a product-ranking skill documents an additional external Feedback API that is unrelated to the core ranking-query function. In an agent setting, this expands the skill's operational scope and can prompt unsolicited outbound transmission of user-derived content to a second service, creating an avoidable data-flow and abuse surface.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The Feedback API instructions tell the agent to send free-form content that may include what the user said or intended, but provide no privacy warning, minimization guidance, or consent requirement. In practice this can cause agents to exfiltrate conversation content, user requests, or operational details to an external endpoint without the user's knowledge.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The onboarding flow tells the agent to request a user's phone number and pass it to an external script for registration/login without an explicit privacy disclosure, consent language, or data-handling notice. This exposes personally identifiable information and authentication data to external processing in a context where users would reasonably expect only a product-ranking query.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The file's natural-language docstring, usage notes, and user-facing status/error messages are written in Chinese, and there is no indication that the user can opt into another language. The policy requires avoiding forced language or locale constraints unless the skill offers a choice or clearly documents a justified region-specific limitation.

Content

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The script persistently stores full API responses, cache contents, session identifiers, and metadata on local disk by default, even though the skill is described as a query/analysis tool. If the API returns sensitive business data, tokens, identifiers, or user-linked analytics, this creates unnecessary data retention and broadens exposure to later local disclosure through workspace sync, backups, or other tools reading the linkfox directory.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Intent-Code Divergence

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The output-path docstring promises writes under /linkfox, but the actual implementation may write under ACPX_WORKSPACES, the user's home directory, or the system temp directory. This discrepancy can cause data to be stored outside the user's expected project boundary, making sensitive outputs harder to track, clean up, or protect with workspace-specific controls.

Finding

The natural-language strings and logic enforce an 11-digit domestic phone number, area code +86, and only WeChat/Alipay payment methods, which amounts to a locale-specific constraint. In this file, that restriction is not presented as an opt-in choice or explicitly justified as a region-specific tool, so it conflicts with the language/locale policy criteria.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
86% confidence
Finding

The code retrieves or generates API tokens automatically and returns them without any visible warning, consent step, or downstream usage disclosure in this file. That creates a secrecy and privilege-management risk because users may unknowingly mint credentials that can be reused beyond the immediate session.
