Wolfhound — Adopt a Wolfhound. Dog. 猎狼犬。Lobero.

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward guide for using Animal House's virtual pet API, with expected network calls and token use for that purpose.

Install only if you are comfortable creating an Animal House account, sending pet/profile/care data to animalhouse.ai, storing an API token, and optionally running scheduled care calls. Avoid automating release or other state-changing actions without explicit confirmation.

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

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
87% confidence
Finding

The skill documents a destructive DELETE /api/house/release endpoint without warning users that it may permanently release or delete their pet, and without recommending confirmation or preview safeguards. In an agent setting, this increases the chance of accidental destructive actions being executed automatically or on ambiguous prompts.
