Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The bundled skill has limited local access, but its helper produces an outline rather than the finished, checked listing copy advertised.

Expect to write and review the final listing yourself; the helper does not verify facts or legal compliance. Use a dedicated output directory to avoid overwriting outline.md. The optional unsigned app in the [publisher repository](https://github.com/rapidworker1/Multiple-AI-models-Toolkit) is separate, unnecessary for this workflow, and outside this bundle's assessment.

  • 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

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Category
MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding

The script's primary output is a generic keyword outline instructing writers to answer queries and add examples and US-specific details. It does not use seller fact-sheet fields to compose a property description or assess whether copy meets the declared release constraints. Its real estate title and static guardrails provide partial topical alignment, but do not fulfill the materially different declared purpose. Local input reading and output writing are supporting implementation details; no unrelated resource access or external communication is present.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Skill declares no tool scope ('permissions' or 'allowed-tools') but code capabilities were detected: file_write.

Medium
Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
70% confidence
Finding

Without declared permissions the skill's intent is opaque and cannot be validated.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

The script produces a keyword-based content outline rather than MLS-ready listing copy from seller-provided property facts.

Medium
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The manifest promises listing descriptions based on a seller's fact sheet, subject to fair-housing and accuracy limits. The implementation instead reads only keywords and writes generic section instructions to outline.md; its guardrails are appended as text rather than applied to listing copy.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

The generated outline requires US-specific content without user opt-in or a documented regional scope.

Output Handling
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

Every keyword section is instructed to include a US-specific detail, regardless of the property's location or the user's preferences. The file neither offers a locale choice nor documents why this general real estate writing tool is restricted to a US context.
