Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill coherently automates Xiaohongshu Creator Center workflows and discloses the main account, posting, browser, and image-staging actions it needs.

Install only if you are comfortable letting the agent operate a logged-in Xiaohongshu Creator Center session, upload selected local/generated images, read visible account metrics, and draft or send social replies. Review content before confirming any publish action.

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

Finding

The manifest frames this skill as Xiaohongshu Creator Center browser automation for drafting, publishing, replying, and checking metrics. L123 instructs copying files between local directories (cp to an inbound path), which expands the capability into local filesystem manipulation beyond the clearly stated social-post management workflow.
