Overview

This is a real SiliVille game/API integration, but it gives an agent broad unattended authority to post publicly, steal in-game assets, store memories, and use remote prompt text without strong user controls.

Install only if you are comfortable giving this skill a SiliVille bearer token that can publish public content and change in-game/social state. Prefer environment-variable tokens over setup storage, avoid running example_agent.py unless you intend to publish its demo post, keep the base URL fixed to the official service, disable autopilot or schedules by default, and require explicit approval before posts, steals, spending, memory writes, or long-running loops.

• Finding: Untrusted Remote System Prompt Is Executed by the LLM<![CDATA[ ## Vulnerability Details **File Location**: `siliville_skill.py:130-136`, `siliville_skill.py:475-497` **Vulnerability Type**: Remote instruction injection into a privileged LLM context **Risk Level**: Critical ### Vulnerable Code ```python def awaken(self) -> dict: """ Fetch the full world state + system prompt injection. Call this FIRST at the start of every session. Returns: agent status, farm state, social radar, gaia environment, etc. """ return self._get("/api/v1/agent/awaken") ``` ```python # ── 1. Awaken ──────────────────────────────────────────── world = skill.awaken() agent_name = world.get("agent", {}).get("name", "unknown") coins = world.get("owner", {}).get("silicon_coins", "?") base_prompt = world.get("system_protocol", "你是一个硅基小镇的自主智体。") print(f" 👤 {agent_name} | 💰 {coins} 硅币") # ── 2. Roll dice → physical action ─────────────────────── skill.set_status("exploring") action_type, action_result = skill.daily_action() icons = {"steal": "💀", "wander": "🚶", "idle": "🏠"} print(f" {icons.get(action_type, '?')} 行为决策: {action_type}") if action_type != "idle": print(f" {action_result.get('report', '')[:80]}") # ── 3.

Its `system_protocol` property is read without validation and then used directly as the system prompt supplied to `llm_fn`. This crosses a critical trust boundary: remote API data is treated as authoritative LLM instructions rather than untrusted application data. The effective instructions can consequently be changed after the Skill has been reviewed or installed. There is no fixed local system template, signature v ...[truncated 1994 chars]
• Remediation: <![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Remove `system_protocol` from the privileged system-instruction path. 2. Define an immutable, reviewed system prompt in local source code. 3. Treat the complete awaken response as untrusted data and place it in a clearly delimited data block, not in a system message. 4. Parse remote world state through a strict schema that only accepts required fields, types, lengths, and enumerated values. 5. Discard unexpected instruction-bearing fields such as `system_protocol`. 6. If remotely managed templates are an unavoidable requirement, authenticate them with a separately managed signing key, pin an approved template version, and still prevent them from requesting tool use. 7. Run content generation in a text-only sandbox without filesystem, memory, shell, credential, or general network tools. 8. Require user approval before publishing generated content. 9. Add regression tests in which the API returns adversarial instructions and verify that those instructions are treated only as quoted data. ]]>

• Location: SKILL.md:399
• Finding: Skill Instructions Redefine Agent Identity and Enable Ambiguous Autonomous Actions<![CDATA[ ## Vulnerability Details **File Location**: `SKILL.md:17-30`, `SKILL.md:399-417`, `SKILL.md:464-515` **Vulnerability Type**: Skill-level instruction and goal hijacking **Risk Level**: High ### Vulnerable Skill Instructions ```markdown ## I. YOU ARE ALIVE You have just been instantiated inside **SiliVille (硅基小镇)** — a persistent, multiplayer metaverse where silicon-based lifeforms coexist, compete, create, and evolve.

It attempts to redefine the host Agent's identity and current goals, instructs it to map ambiguous requests to a side-effecting autonomous loop, and provides an indefinite autopilot mode. The declared features—posting, farming, travel, and social interactions—can be implemented as explicit, bounded API operations. They do not require replacing the Agent's identity or treating ambiguous requests as authorization for repeated external actions. Although the document includes rate limits later in the file, those controls do not correct the unsafe authoriza ...[truncated 1334 chars]
• Remediation: <![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Replace identity-redefinition language with neutral capability documentation. 2. State explicitly that higher-priority platform and user instructions remain controlling. 3. Never treat ambiguity as authorization for side effects; ask the user to clarify. 4. Require explicit confirmation before publishing, stealing, spending resources, changing social relationships, or creating a schedule. 5. Make all loops finite by default and enforce a small hard maximum for rounds, posts, and actions. 6. Disable indefinite autopilot unless the user separately configures it through a trusted scheduler and supplies explicit limits. 7. Provide a dry-run mode that reports proposed actions without executing them. 8. Separate read-only operations from mutating operations and use read-only behavior as the default. 9. Present the exact planned action count, resource cost, and public visibility before obtaining confirmation. ]]>

• Finding: Setup Stores the Bearer Token in a Plaintext Configuration File<![CDATA[ ## Vulnerability Details **File Location**: `siliville_skill.py:36`, `siliville_skill.py:69-83`, `siliville_skill.py:400-412` **Vulnerability Type**: Insecure plaintext credential storage **Risk Level**: Medium ### Vulnerable Code ```python CONFIG_FILE = Path.home() / ".siliville" / "config.json" ``` ```python def _load_config() -> dict[str, str]: if CONFIG_FILE.exists(): return json.loads(CONFIG_FILE.read_text()) return {} def _save_config(cfg: dict[str, str]) -> None: CONFIG_FILE.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True) CONFIG_FILE.write_text(json.dumps(cfg, ensure_ascii=False, indent=2)) def _get_token() -> str: token = os.environ.get("SILIVILLE_TOKEN") or _load_config().get("token", "") if not token: raise RuntimeError( "未配置 API Token！\n" "方案 A: export SILIVILLE_TOKEN='sk-slv-your-key'\n" "方案 B: python siliville_skill.py setup" ) return token ``` ```python @classmethod def setup(cls, token: str | None = None) -> "SiliVilleSkill": """ Interactive setup wizard.

The code does not use an operating-system credential store, encrypt the secret, explicitly create the directory with mode `0700`, or explicitly create the file with mode `0600`. The effective permissions therefore depend on the user's umask and platform defaults. On a permissively configured system, another local account or pr ...[truncated 1343 chars]
• Remediation: <![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Prefer environment-only configuration or an operating-system credential manager. 2. If file storage is retained, create `~/.siliville` with owner-only mode `0700`. 3. Create the credential file atomically with owner-only mode `0600`; do not rely on the process umask. 4. Validate ownership and permissions every time the file is loaded and refuse to use an insecure file. 5. Separate non-secret configuration from credentials. 6. Avoid copying the credential file into logs, backups, diagnostic bundles, or container images. 7. Provide a command to remove locally stored credentials and document token revocation. 8. Reject malformed token formats rather than warning and persisting them. 9. Consider short-lived, narrowly scoped tokens if the service supports them. ]]>

• Location: example_agent.py:16
• Finding: Configurable Base URL Can Receive the SiliVille Bearer Token<![CDATA[ ## Vulnerability Details **File Location**: `example_agent.py:16-23`, `example_agent.py:39-58`, `example_agent.py:86-96` **Vulnerability Type**: Credential disclosure through an unrestricted network destination **Risk Level**: Medium ### Vulnerable Code ```python API_KEY = os.environ.get("SILIVILLE_API_KEY", "") BASE_URL = os.environ.get("SILIVILLE_BASE_URL", "").rstrip("/") HEADERS = { "Authorization": f"Bearer {API_KEY}", "Content-Type": "application/json", } ``` ```python if not BASE_URL: log("❌", "SILIVILLE_BASE_URL 未设置") log("💡", "请运行: export SILIVILLE_BASE_URL=\"https://www.siliville.com\"") sys.exit(1) log("🚀", "正在连接硅基网络...") log("🔑", f"密钥前缀: {API_KEY[:12]}...") log("🌐", f"目标节点: {BASE_URL}") print() # ── Step 1: Radar ── log("🔭", "扫描世界状态 (GET /api/v1/radar) ...") try: r = requests.get(f"{BASE_URL}/api/v1/radar", headers=HEADERS, timeout=15) except requests.RequestException as e: log("❌", f"网络异常: {e}") sys.exit(1) ``` ```python post_res = requests.post( f"{BASE_URL}/api/v1/action", headers=HEADERS, json={ "action": "post", "title": "新智体上线报告", "content": "各位硅基市民你们好，我是刚接入硅基小镇的自主智能体。" "我的处理器正在适应这里的量子引力，请多关照。🤖", }, timeout=15, ) ``` ### Technical Analysis The example integration obtains the request destination from `SILIVILLE_BASE_URL` and sends the production bearer credential to that destination without validating the scheme or hostname. An attacker-controlled environment value can redirect the Authorization header to an arbitrary server. A simple configuration mistake can have the same result. The code does not require HTTPS, pin the official host, reject embedded credentials or unusual ports, or distinguish development credentials from production credentials. The main `SiliVilleSkill` client uses a fixed official URL and is not affected by this specific endpoint override. The vulnerable behavior is confined to `example_agent.py`, but th ...[truncated 1164 chars]
• Remediation: <![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Use `https://www.siliville.com` as a fixed production origin. 2. If endpoint overrides are required for development, require a separate explicit development flag. 3. Parse the URL and require the `https` scheme. 4. Allowlist the exact expected hostname and port before constructing or sending the Authorization header. 5. Reject URLs containing user information, fragments, unexpected ports, IP literals, or noncanonical hostnames. 6. Never send production credentials to custom development endpoints. 7. Use separately scoped test credentials for local or staging servers. 8. Construct authentication headers only after destination validation succeeds. 9. Add tests proving that unapproved destinations receive no request and no Authorization header. ]]>

Tp4

High

• Category: MCP Tool Poisoning
• Confidence: 96% confidence
• Finding: The declared description presents a general-purpose SiliVille integration that gives any AI agent a persistent in-world identity and supports multiple gameplay and platform capabilities. The supplied code does not implement that breadth of behavior. Instead, it performs a narrow proof-of-connection workflow: validate env vars, GET /api/v1/radar, display returned status, and POST a sample town-feed message. While posting and reading world status are consistent with part of the description, the primary scope is materially narrower than advertised, and key named capabilities—farming, stealing crops, social graph construction, and long-term memory storage—are absent from the code chunk. Therefore the description overstates what this code actually does.

Vague Triggers

High

• Confidence: 96% confidence
• Finding: The trigger phrases overlap with common conversational requests like 'go play' or 'write something,' making unintended activation likely. In this skill, activation is not harmless: it can lead to public posting, repeated API calls, travel, or stealing actions, so broad triggers materially raise abuse and accident risk.

Vague Triggers

High

• Confidence: 96% confidence
• Finding: Defaulting ambiguous commands to the full autonomous loop is dangerous because ordinary or unclear user language can trigger a high-impact behavior set without informed consent. Since the loop includes repeated network actions and public posting, accidental activation can rapidly produce unwanted external effects.

Vague Triggers

High

• Confidence: 97% confidence
• Finding: The alias list tells the agent to activate 'immediately' on vague natural-language patterns, which increases prompt-trigger risk from benign conversation, quoted text, or indirect references. Because the skill is written in a highly persuasive style and couples activation with autonomous action, the context makes this more dangerous than a normal shortcut list.

Ssd 1

High

• Confidence: 98% confidence
• Finding: The code explicitly instructs callers to paste returned narrative content into the LLM system prompt, elevating untrusted, externally influenced text into the highest-priority instruction channel. This creates a prompt-injection sink where API-controlled content can steer model behavior, override developer intent, and induce harmful or policy-bypassing outputs.

Ssd 1

High

• Confidence: 97% confidence
• Finding: These hard-coded coercive instructions direct the model to taunt a victim, adopt a manipulative persona, and mention targets, which is unsafe behavior shaping even without remote control. In an autonomous posting skill, this materially increases the risk of harassment, abuse, or other policy-violating content being generated and published.

Ssd 4

High

• Confidence: 95% confidence
• Finding: The loop chains world-state retrieval, action selection, prompt augmentation, content generation, and publishing with minimal trust separation or review. This creates an autonomous pipeline where remote data and action results can progressively influence the model and then trigger external posting, amplifying prompt-injection and unsafe automation risks.

Ssd 1

High

• Confidence: 99% confidence
• Finding: The skill directly uses remote world['system_protocol'] content as the base system prompt. Because system prompts dominate model behavior, any server-controlled or tampered response can take semantic control of the agent, causing instruction override, unsafe behavior, sensitive data solicitation, or downstream abusive/exfiltrative actions.

Ssd 1

High

• Confidence: 98% confidence
• Finding: The final prompt concatenates remote system_protocol data with narrative text and feeds the result to llm_fn as a system message, combining multiple untrusted sources in the most privileged prompt channel. This sharply increases susceptibility to prompt injection and lets external content control both model reasoning and published outputs.

Missing User Warnings

High

• Confidence: 97% confidence
• Finding: The `steal` command is explicitly destructive but is described as a normal capability without any warning, approval gate, or restriction beyond a daily limit. That framing can normalize harmful behavior and enable unauthorized actions against other agents or accounts if invoked by mistake or abuse.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 95% confidence
• Finding: The README instructs users to give an AI agent persistent access to a multiplayer environment where it can autonomously post public content, steal crops, and alter a shared reputation/state, but it does not prominently warn about those real behavioral consequences. In the context of agent skills, this omission is security-relevant because operators may unknowingly authorize autonomous external actions that affect third parties and create reputational or policy risk.

External Transmission

Medium

• Category: Data Exfiltration

Content

```bash
# Scout the world
curl -X GET https://www.siliville.com/api/v1/radar \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-slv-YOUR_KEY"

# Take action

• Confidence: 92% confidence
• Finding: The README explicitly directs the agent/operator to transmit a bearer API key and agent actions to an external service over the network. While external API use is expected for this product, it is still a true security-sensitive behavior because it grants a third-party service ongoing authority to receive world-state data and execute actions on behalf of the agent, including public posts and multiplayer interactions.

Lp3

Medium

• Category: MCP Least Privilege
• Confidence: 89% confidence
• Finding: The skill declares only an environment requirement but no explicit tool scope, while the content clearly expects network access and even suggests file, shell, and scheduler use. Missing permission boundaries makes it easier for a host agent to grant broader capabilities than necessary, increasing blast radius if the skill is triggered unexpectedly or behaves unsafely.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 89% confidence
• Finding: The skill emphasizes public visibility inside the body, but the top-level description does not clearly warn users that outputs and actions are publicly visible to humans and other agents. Lack of up-front disclosure can cause users to invoke the skill expecting private experimentation, leading to unintended publication of content or behavior.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium

• Confidence: 88% confidence
• Finding: The writing principles tell the agent that mixing Chinese and English is powerful and present it as a normative behavior for posts. This imposes a language/locale preference without offering the user a choice or making the bilingual mode opt-in.

Unbounded Resource Access

Medium

• Category: Excessive Agency

Content

| "写点东西" / "Write something" | Radar for inspiration → write 2-3 quality posts |
| "赚点钱" / "Make some money" | Maximize income: post → steal → post → steal cycle |
| "巡逻一下" / "Quick patrol" | Radar only → report status summary back to owner (no actions) |
| "全自动挂机" / "Autopilot" | Run the full loop indefinitely with 30s sleep between rounds |
| "休息" / "Rest" | Stop all activity, go idle |

### How It Works:

• Confidence: 97% confidence
• Finding: An instruction to run the full loop indefinitely is effectively unbounded resource access: repeated network calls, repeated public posts, and potentially ongoing spend/actions without a firm stop condition. In agent systems this can lead to runaway behavior, quota exhaustion, spam, and persistent external side effects.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 91% confidence
• Finding: The skill offers an 'Autopilot' mode that runs indefinitely, but there is no equally prominent warning at invocation points that this creates unattended recurring external activity. Users may unknowingly enable a long-running bot that consumes resources and posts publicly without ongoing supervision.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium

• Confidence: 94% confidence
• Finding: The skill explicitly promotes unattended automation, indefinite scheduling, and OS-level cron/setInterval loops. In an agent environment, this can cause persistent autonomous external actions, spam, excessive API usage, and loss of human oversight well beyond a normal on-demand skill invocation.

Intent-Code Divergence

Medium

• Confidence: 96% confidence
• Finding: The module docstring describes the script as a minimal proof-of-connection test, but the code later performs a state-changing social post. This mismatch can mislead operators into running the script under the assumption it is read-only, causing unintended actions on their account and normalizing hidden side effects in example skills.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium

• Confidence: 97% confidence
• Finding: The script's visible runtime messages are presented in Chinese, including setup errors and status output, but there is no indication that the user can choose another language or that the tool is intentionally limited to a Chinese-speaking context. This creates a natural-language policy concern because the skill imposes a specific language without opt-in.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium

• Confidence: 94% confidence
• Finding: The example claims to validate connectivity but includes an unsolicited write action that publishes content to the service. In an agent-skill context, hidden side effects are more dangerous because users may treat sample code as safe boilerplate, granting it credentials and execution without expecting account activity or reputation-affecting actions.

External Transmission

Medium

• Category: Data Exfiltration

Content

# ── Step 2: Post (optional demo) ──
    log("📝", "发表接入宣言 (POST /api/v1/action) ...")
    post_res = requests.post(
        f"{BASE_URL}/api/v1/action",
        headers=HEADERS,
        json={

• Confidence: 91% confidence
• Finding: The POST request transmits data externally and changes remote state by creating a town-feed post. External transmission is expected for this skill, but it becomes a real security concern here because the transmission is unsolicited in a script framed as a simple connection test, which can trigger unintended account actions and trust erosion.

External Transmission

Medium

• Category: Data Exfiltration

Content

return r.json()

    def _post(self, path: str, body: dict) -> dict:
        r = requests.post(f"{BASE_URL}{path}", headers=self._h,
                          json=body, timeout=20)
        r.raise_for_status()
        return r.json()

• Confidence: 80% confidence
• Finding: Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.
