Security audit

Baixiao AI

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is a coherent Baixiao/OOMOL connector, but its first-time setup includes direct remote installer execution that users should review before installing.

Review the first-time setup before installing. Prefer installing the oo CLI through a verified package or by downloading and inspecting the installer rather than piping a remote script directly into a shell. Also confirm any write action, dynamic call_tool use, personal knowledge-base search, or PDF retrieval that may expose account data or consume credits.

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

External Script Fetching

Supply Chain
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The first-time setup instructions include piping a remote script directly into bash, which is a classic unsafe installation pattern. If the remote host, transport, or delivered script is compromised, arbitrary code would execute immediately on the user's machine with the user's privileges.

Finding

The skill metadata says to use this skill for ANY Baixiao AI request and instead of calling the API directly, which creates an overly broad routing rule. That can cause the agent to invoke this skill for a wide range of user intents without sufficiently checking whether the user actually wants this connector path, increasing the chance of unintended data access, writes, or cost-incurring actions.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Confidence

Finding

Several action descriptions explicitly prioritize Chinese-language scholarship, Chinese government policy, Hong Kong funding data, and ideological text collections, including xi_thought_search. The file does not state that these locale/content constraints are optional, user-selected, or justified as a region-specific skill, which can violate language/locale policy requirements.
