Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward patent-analysis workflow that tells the agent to use user-provided materials and PatSnap/Zhihuiya MCP patent data, with no code, persistence, or hidden authority.

Before installing, confirm you are comfortable sending relevant patent questions, user-provided materials, and patent-search context to the configured PatSnap/Zhihuiya MCP tools. Treat generated FTO, infringement, or validity analysis as decision support, not legal advice.

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

Finding

The manifest description and the entire skill content are written in Chinese, with no indication that users may choose another language. Under the policy rule for natural-language constraints, this can amount to a language/locale restriction unless the skill explicitly offers opt-in or explains a justified region-specific limitation.
