Intellectia Stock Forecast 1.0.2

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed Intellectia stock-analysis helper that sends only requested ticker details to its stated API, with a modest dependency risk to consider.

Install only if you are comfortable sending requested ticker queries to Intellectia and with OpenClaw installing the unpinned Python requests dependency. Treat the output as informational rather than investment advice, as the skill itself warns that predictions are not guaranteed and data may be delayed.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • 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

" ``` 2. Where supported by the skill installation system, verify the dependency using an approved lock file and cryptographic hashes, such as pip's `--require-hashes` mode. 3. Install packages only from a trusted, authenticated package index or controlled internal mirror. 4. Incorporate dependency vulnerability and integrity scanning into the release process. 5. Regularly review and deliberately update the pinned version so security patches are adopted without silently accepting unreviewed releases. 6. If the runtime already provides a trusted HTTP client, remove the automatic pip installation and use the existing reviewed component instead. ]]>

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The example request body fixes locale to en, which indicates the skill is designed around a specific language/locale. The file does not state that users can choose another locale or that English is required for a justified region-specific reason, so this is a natural-language policy concern.
