China Travel

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a China travel guide skill made of Markdown references, with no code, hidden install behavior, or privileged actions; users should still verify time-sensitive travel advice.

Install only if you are comfortable with Chinese-language travel guidance. Verify visa, entry, hotel registration, payment, VPN, and transport details against official sources before acting, and avoid treating novelty travel challenges as safety advice.

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

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The manifest description and opening skill text are entirely in Chinese and present the assistant as a China travel helper for foreign visitors, but nowhere offers an opt-in or alternative language choice. This creates a locale/language policy concern because the skill appears to assume a fixed output language for all users.

Missing User Warnings

Confidence
86% confidence
Finding

The document promotes a late-night solo walking challenge ('凌晨3点独自 city walk') and reinforces it with a broad safety claim that China is among the safest countries, without contextual safety caveats. In a travel-assistant skill aimed at foreign visitors, this can encourage risky behavior in unfamiliar environments and create a false sense of security around crime, harassment, scams, disorientation, or emergency response limitations.
