Translate Hub Free

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This translation skill is mostly coherent, but it asks for unrestricted command execution without a clear translation-related need.

Review before installing. The skill appears to be a normal translation prompt package, but it should not need unrestricted shell execution for ordinary text, Markdown, or code-comment translation. Prefer a version that removes exec or clearly explains exactly when commands run and requires explicit user approval.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
  • 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

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium

Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The README explicitly states '完全中文化交互,适配中文用户工作流', which indicates the skill is designed to enforce Chinese interaction rather than offering the user a language or locale choice. Under the policy, language constraints should be optional or clearly justified; here there is no opt-in mechanism or documented necessity for restricting interaction language.

Intent-Code Divergence

Confidence
66% confidence
Finding

The FAQ asserts concrete product-like operational limits and direct usability claims, but the rest of the file is only Markdown instructions without any implementation details to impose segment/file quotas or file handling. This creates an intent/documentation divergence between claimed managed behavior and what the skill content actually provides.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
78% confidence
Finding

The file repeatedly presents the skill as a direct translation tool that works '无需任何配置' and '无需额外API Key', but the manifest also declares allowed-tools: read exec and states partial functionality requires command execution. That is a semantic mismatch in advertised operating model, even though no executable code is shown here.
