Security audit

cliptude-script

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill coherently researches video topics, writes narration, and submits the result to Cliptude for video generation.

Use topics and media you are comfortable sharing with external services. Generation can consume Cliptude credits; check the script, template, duration, and cost before submitting. Specify another narration language if needed.

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

Description-Behavior Mismatch

MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The supplied command contains no web search or script-writing step. It consumes script.txt and directly invokes video generation. Although this belongs to the broader Cliptude workflow, its primary operation differs materially from the declared research-and-narration-writing purpose.

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Required web searches transmit user-provided topics to an external search service without a privacy warning.

Output Handling
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The workflow requires searches constructed from the user's title, topic, and named people or companies. It provides no warning that this information will leave the conversation and no instruction to redact confidential details before searching.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Narration is required to use English without user language choice or opt-in.

Low
Category
Output Handling
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The voice instruction specifies “eighth-grade English,” imposing English on the generated narration rather than merely requesting clear language. The skill offers no language choice and gives no locale-specific justification for this restriction.
