Ecomm Ai Voice Agent

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill matches its eCommerce automation purpose, but it exposes unauthenticated workflows that can send messages/calls and change order records using the operator's credentials.

Review before installing. Only deploy these workflows behind authenticated, signed, and rate-limited webhooks; remove request-controlled confirmation URLs; validate order IDs, phone numbers, statuses, and state transitions server-side; and use least-privilege provider credentials. Also document customer consent, privacy notices, transcript retention, spreadsheet access, and telecom rules before enabling outbound calls or messages.

Missing User Warnings

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The workflow sends customer phone number, name, order details, and order metadata to an external Vapi endpoint to place an outbound call. In this file there is no warning, confirmation, or disclosure comment indicating that personal/order data will be shared with a third-party service.

Content

Missing User Warnings

High
Category

Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

This node sends customer phone, name, email, order, and platform metadata to HubSpot, but the file gives no indication that operators or end users are warned that a third-party SaaS will receive the data. In combination with the unauthenticated webhook, this increases the risk of unauthorized PII export and unexpected cross-system propagation.

Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The skill describes workflows that collect and transmit customer phone numbers, emails, order details, call transcripts, and CRM data across Vapi, Twilio, Google Sheets, HubSpot, Shopify/WooCommerce, and WhatsApp, but it does not warn users about privacy, consent, data retention, or jurisdictional compliance obligations. In this context, the omission is security-relevant because operators may deploy the system without understanding that sensitive customer data is being shared with multiple third parties and logged in broadly accessible systems like spreadsheets.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The workflow exposes a publicly reachable POST webhook at a predictable path and does not perform any authentication, signature verification, IP allowlisting, or other invocation constraints before processing order data. In this eCommerce context, an attacker could submit forged orders, pollute Google Sheets with attacker-controlled PII/content, and trigger downstream COD/prepaid confirmation workflows, making the lack of request validation materially risky.

Confidence
83% confidence
Finding

The workflow exposes a POST webhook at a predictable path and the file shows no authentication, signature verification, shared secret, IP allowlist, or payload validation before triggering an outbound customer call. An attacker who can reach the endpoint could submit arbitrary order/customer data, causing unauthorized calls, spam, and pollution of downstream order logs.

Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The workflow appends customer phone number, customer name, order identifiers, and call metadata to a Google Sheet. This persists personal data, but the file contains no warning, notice, or explanatory comment about that storage behavior.

Content

Confidence
88% confidence
Finding

The workflow updates the Orders sheet to mark the order status as "call_initiated" and stores call metadata. This is a persistent state change affecting business records, but the file provides no user-facing warning or explanatory comment about the update.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The SMS template is hard-coded in English, and the workflow contains no indication that language is selected based on user preference or limited to an English-only context. This is a natural-language policy issue because it imposes a specific language on end users without opt-in or justification.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The outbound call's firstMessage is explicitly written in English and there is no evidence in the workflow that customers can choose another language or that the workflow is restricted to an English-speaking audience. This violates the language/locale policy criteria for natural-language content.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

This workflow exposes a POST webhook that appears to accept end-of-call callbacks and then directly updates Google Sheets records, retry queues, and downstream order-status workflows based entirely on request body fields. There is no visible authentication, signature verification, shared secret validation, or source allowlisting, so an attacker who can reach the endpoint could forge callbacks to mark orders confirmed/declined, enqueue retries, or trigger SMS fallback actions.

Content

Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

This workflow automatically sends customer_phone, customer_name, and order metadata to external endpoints via the WhatsApp/SMS fallback and Vapi call nodes. The file contains no user-facing warning, confirmation step, or explanatory comment/docstring disclosing that personal data is transmitted to third-party services.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The workflow exposes a POST webhook that can trigger outbound WhatsApp/SMS sending using attacker-supplied order_id, customer_name, and customer_phone, but there is no visible authentication, signature verification, allowlist, or other trigger constraint. In this context, that creates a message-relay/abuse endpoint that could be used to spam arbitrary numbers, generate telecom/API charges, and poison the call log with fraudulent entries.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The generated WhatsApp and SMS messages force English-language communication to end users. Under the policy, locale or language must not be forced without user opt-in or a clearly documented, justified region-specific constraint.

Intent-Code Divergence

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The workflow tells users it will check refund status, but the node returns a hard-coded status message without querying any order, refund, or payment system. This can mislead customers into believing sensitive account-specific actions were performed, causing incorrect support outcomes and potentially masking operational failures.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Intent-Code Divergence

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The workflow claims it will look up order or shipping status, but it only generates a canned response and performs no retrieval from Shopify, WooCommerce, carrier APIs, or internal systems. In a customer-support context, this creates deceptive behavior that can misinform customers and delay resolution of real order issues.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding

This workflow transmits externally supplied customer inquiry content to a third-party API endpoint at OpenAI. While external API use is common, in this context it is security-relevant because potentially sensitive support data leaves the primary environment and is processed by another service.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

Customer inquiry text, which may contain personal or order-related information, is sent to OpenAI for FAQ generation with no evidence in this file of notice, consent, minimization, or filtering. This creates privacy and compliance risk because externally processing customer support content may violate policy, customer expectations, or applicable data-handling requirements.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The workflow sends customer phone numbers and message content to Twilio without any visible disclosure or consent handling in the workflow. In an eCommerce support setting, this can create privacy and telecom-compliance issues, especially if users did not explicitly agree to receive SMS messages or if sensitive order details are included.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The workflow appends customer order identifiers, phone numbers, response summaries, and timestamps to Google Sheets without any visible notice, retention policy, or access-control safeguards in this file. Storing support interactions in a spreadsheet increases the risk of overexposure, mishandling, and unauthorized access to customer data.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding

This workflow performs external HTTP PUT requests that modify live order records in Shopify and WooCommerce, but the file contains no visible confirmation step, no user-facing disclosure, and no descriptive warning comment around these operations. Because this is a manifest/config file rather than a README or markdown description, there is no accompanying in-file warning that the webhook can change production order state.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
85% confidence
Finding

The workflow reads environment-based credentials such as SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN and WOOCOMMERCE_AUTH_HEADER and sends them in HTTP headers, but there is no warning, comment, or user-facing notice explaining that sensitive credentials are used for outbound authenticated requests. This qualifies as credential access/network transmission lacking disclosure under the rule.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The auto-detect branch claims to determine the target platform, but it only relabels the payload and then proceeds directly to logging and responding without performing any Shopify or WooCommerce update. In an order-management workflow, this creates a silent integrity failure where callers receive a success response even though no external order status was changed, which can mislead operators and downstream automations.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Intent-Code Divergence

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The code comment and workflow behavior imply that auto-detection will support updating unknown-platform orders, but the implementation only sets a platform field and skips the actual update request. This discrepancy is dangerous because it can cause false assurance, audit inaccuracies, and inconsistent order states while returning an 'ok' response to the caller.

Content

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The webhook accepts POST requests on a generic path without any visible authentication, signature verification, IP allowlisting, or request validation. An attacker who discovers the endpoint could submit arbitrary records, pollute CRM data, trigger external syncs, and exfiltrate or poison downstream business systems.
