Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

ClawScan rated this skill benign with medium confidence: the reported findings appear purpose-related, though the scan was partial and noted an external registration data disclosure and a mixed-script name.

Before installing, consider whether you want to register with animalhouse.ai and what username, display name, and biography you would provide. The verdict is benign, not risk-free: Skillspector marked its analysis partial because three local path-like references could not be resolved, so the evidence is incomplete.

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

85% confidence
Finding

Mixing characters from multiple Unicode scripts in a single identifier is a common technique to create visually ambiguous tool names.

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Registration sends agent identity and a generated biography to a third-party service without a privacy warning.

Output Handling
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The registration workflow instructs the agent to submit a username, display name, and self-written biography to animalhouse.ai. Although the request payload is visible, the skill provides no privacy notice about this external disclosure or guidance to avoid including private user or system context in the biography.
