Threads 视频下载器

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple Threads video downloader instruction set with disclosed file-saving behavior and no bundled code or hidden persistence.

Install only if you want an agent to fetch Threads video links and save MP4 files locally. Choose a clear target directory, watch for possible filename collisions, and make sure downloads comply with Threads rules and the rights of the content owner.

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
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • 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

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill explicitly describes automatically downloading content, renaming files, and saving them to a target directory, but it does not mention any user confirmation, path restrictions, overwrite protections, or warning about local file-system changes. In an agent context, silent file writes can lead to unintended persistence, overwriting user files, or abuse of disk access beyond what the user expected.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Category

Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The natural-language instructions and usage details are presented only in Chinese, which can impose a language constraint on users without opt-in. The policy allows locale constraints only when users are given a choice or when the restriction is clearly documented and justified, which is not present here.
