Picrd Image Hosting

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward guide for uploading user-chosen images to picrd.com, with disclosure that hosted images are externally accessible.

Install only if you intentionally want agents to upload non-sensitive images to picrd.com. Treat unlisted links as shareable, not private, and keep the delete URL if you may need to remove an upload later.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The manifest description is heavily keyword-stuffed with broad terms like 'free hosting', 'file hosting', and 'file share', which can cause the skill to trigger on generic user requests unrelated to deliberate image-upload intent. In an agent setting, overbroad routing is dangerous because it increases the chance that users’ files or screenshots are sent to a third-party public hosting service when they only asked for help sharing, storing, or handling files in general.

Missing User Warnings

Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill’s primary usage flow encourages uploading screenshots, diagrams, and generated images to a public third-party service without a prominent warning immediately before transmission. Because screenshots and images frequently contain secrets, personal data, internal documents, or tokens, this omission can lead to unintended disclosure of sensitive information to a permanent externally hosted URL.
