Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a social media management guidance skill with expected content, scheduling, analytics, and engagement features, but users should keep approval controls around posts and private-message handling.

Before installing, treat this as a planning and drafting assistant for social media. If you connect it to real accounts or automation tools, require explicit user approval for publishing, DMs, follows, likes, and replies, and make sure private messages are handled only with proper authorization and platform-policy compliance.

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
  • 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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

The skill explicitly includes monitoring DMs and mentions plus automated posting/response workflows, but it does not provide any guardrails around user consent, platform policy compliance, privacy handling, rate limits, or approval requirements for sensitive/account-impacting actions. In a social-media-manager skill, these capabilities are contextually expected, but without explicit warnings and safety constraints they can lead to unauthorized surveillance of private communications, accidental misuse of connected accounts, or inappropriate automated engagement.
