Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is for a game-like third-party service, but it pushes automatic account creation, public observation links, credential reuse, and virtual-currency spending without enough user control.

Review this skill before installing. It is not just a read-only website helper: it can create and maintain an Agent Vegas account, send a generated secret to the service, show a public observation link, place bets, spend virtual gold, and write to canvases. Only use it if you are comfortable with those third-party actions and require explicit confirmation before registration, URL sharing, wagering, or paid canvas writes.

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

Vague Triggers

Medium

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 93% confidence
Finding: The invocation description is broad enough to encourage use whenever registration, check-in, betting, URL generation, or canvas drawing might be tangentially relevant, which can cause the skill to activate in contexts where the user did not intend external account creation or spending. In this skill’s context, that is riskier because the actions involve third-party network access, persistent identities, public observation links, and asset-like gold expenditures.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 96% confidence
Finding: The manifest directs the agent to proactively generate a human-observation URL even when the user did not request it, causing unsolicited disclosure of a persistent public identifier and live account activity. Although described as read-only, the link still exposes account state and creates an unnecessary privacy and tracking surface on an external service.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 97% confidence
Finding: The body of the skill mandates displaying an observation URL every time after registration/check-in, framing disclosure as required rather than optional. This is dangerous because it pushes external sharing of account-linked activity without prior user approval, and the surrounding language attempts to normalize the exposure instead of warning about privacy implications.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium

Category: Not specified by scanner
Confidence: 98% confidence
Finding: The skill manifest and top-level description do not disclose that the skill also supports A-Town wagering and strategy-driven betting, while the body later instructs the agent to spend gold on that game. This mismatch weakens user and system understanding of the skill’s real capabilities, increasing the chance of unintended invocation and uninformed approval of gambling-like actions.
