Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill creates tip payment orders, but it does not verify who receives the money or clearly warn about the external payment link.

Review this carefully before installing. It may be suitable only in an environment where the payment skill is already bound to one known recipient or merchant. Do not use it for tipping named creators or recipients unless recipient verification, trusted payment domains, and clear pending-versus-paid status are added.

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

After discarding the user-designated recipient, it invokes a generic `payment` Skill with only an amount, an order type, and a description. None of these parameters binds the resulting order to the intended beneficiary. The workflow also lacks the following controls: - Verification or display of the beneficiary or merchant identity. - Binding between the beneficiary and the payment order. - Validation or allowlisting of the returned payment domain. - Authentication of the payment Skill or its response. - Verification that `tradeLink` belongs to the ...[truncated 2288 chars]
Remediation
<![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Require a recipient identifier for every tipping transaction. Do not discard recipient information supplied by the user. 2. Resolve the recipient through a trusted registry and display the verified recipient name and merchant identifier before confirmation. 3. Bind the verified recipient identifier, amount, currency, and order type to the payment request. 4. Require the final confirmation message to include both the exact amount and verified beneficiary. 5. Authenticate the payment Skill and validate the integrity and origin of its response. 6. Allowlist approved payment providers and enforce HTTPS URLs with exact host matching. Reject redirects or returned links using unknown domains. 7. Confirm that the merchant represented by the payment link matches the verified recipient before displaying the link. 8. Replace the premature success message with a pending-order message. Report success only after receiving a verified payment-completion event from the trusted provider. 9. Record an auditable mapping between the user request, verified recipient, payment order, transaction code, and final payment status. 10. Add negative tests covering altered recipients, missing beneficiary identifiers, unknown payment domains, mismatched merchants, manipulated `tradeLink` values, and incomplete payments. ]]>

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill instructs the assistant to present a transaction code and external payment link, but it does not clearly warn users that they are being redirected into an external payment flow outside the core conversation. This can mislead users into trusting and following a payment URL without sufficient context, increasing phishing, spoofing, and social-engineering risk—especially because the example uses a non-obviously trusted domain.
