TikTok Scraper API - Profiles, Videos, Comments, Hashtags

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed TikTok data lookup integration for Scavio, with privacy considerations users should manage but no hidden or destructive behavior found.

Install this only if you are comfortable sending TikTok usernames, video IDs, search terms, and related lookup parameters to Scavio under your Scavio account. Avoid bulk collection or profiling unless you have a legitimate use, respect TikTok/platform rules and applicable privacy law, and be careful when storing or redistributing comments, transcripts, follower lists, live status, or account region data.

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
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

The skill explicitly supports collecting follower/following lists, comments, transcripts, live status, and account region data, but it provides no privacy warning, purpose limitation, or guidance on handling potentially sensitive personal data. In an agent setting, this increases the risk of bulk profiling, surveillance-style use, or inadvertent exposure of personal information retrieved from third-party accounts.
