Doubao Seed Skill

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill has a coherent image-analysis purpose, but it asks users to install and trust an unverified precompiled binary that handles API keys and local images.

Review this before installing. Prefer a pinned release with published SHA-256 checksums or signatures, install it in a user-owned directory instead of /usr/local/bin, and use a narrowly scoped ARK_API_KEY. Assume any local image or prompt you pass to the tool may be processed by the external CLI and Doubao/Volcengine service.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • 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

Privilege Escalation
Confidence
70% confidence
Finding

Commands invoke sudo or root privileges. Verify this elevated access is necessary and justified.
