Security audit

Red Note Generator

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple API-backed content-generation skill with disclosed external use, but users should avoid sending sensitive topics or requests.

Install only if you are comfortable sending note topics and style instructions to wsdsocial.com. Do not include secrets, private customer data, or confidential business material in the topic or request, and keep WSD_API_KEY out of logs and shared command history.

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
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • 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
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The skill documentation instructs users to submit arbitrary topic and style text to a third-party endpoint but does not clearly warn that these inputs leave the local environment and are transmitted to wsdsocial.com. This creates a privacy and data-handling risk because users may unknowingly provide sensitive business, personal, or proprietary content to an external service.

External Transmission

Medium
Category
Data Exfiltration
Content
## Usage

```bash
curl -X POST "https://ai.wsdsocial.com/api/pub/skills/red-note-generator/_tool_86" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "key: ${WSD_API_KEY}" \
  -d '{
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The documented curl example sends user-provided content and an API credential to an external third-party service, which is a real data egress behavior. In this skill's context, external transmission is expected for SaaS-backed generation, but it is still security-relevant because user prompts may contain sensitive content and the API key must be protected.
