Security audit

SoundClawd - identify songs in live sets on Soundcloud - give back an Apple Music/Spotify link

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a narrow music-identification workflow that uses web searches and public music-link lookups, with no code execution, persistence, credential use, or destructive behavior.

Before installing, understand that the skill may perform web searches and fetch public tracklist, SoundCloud, YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, and iTunes Search API results to identify tracks. It does not ask for accounts, credentials, local files, or system changes.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • 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 skill description is broad enough to trigger on general music-identification requests, not just the intended SoundCloud Live screenshot workflow. This can cause the agent to activate unnecessarily, leading to incorrect tool routing, unintended web lookups, or handling user requests outside the skill’s scoped assumptions.
