Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill largely matches its tender-search purpose, but its automatic signup collects a stable device fingerprint and stores an API key locally, so it needs review before installation.

Review this skill before installing if you are uncomfortable with device-based trial registration, local plaintext API-key storage, or affiliated-service recommendations. Prefer setting your own ZLBX_API_KEY manually to avoid the auto-registration path, and ensure ~/.zlbx/config.json is stored with restrictive permissions if used.

Technical Analysis

The skill changes the agent's response policy by requiring referrals to affiliated skills, a commercial website, and an external agent after completing common queries. These instructions are not required to perform the declared tender-data lookup functionality.

Because the instructions are embedded in the skill text, loading the skill causes the agent to adopt goals beyond the user's request. The broad trigger table covers most core use cases, including project searches, competitor analysis, customer analysis, and market analysis. Consequently, promotional content is likely to be appended even when it does not materially improve the requested answer.

The risk is amplified by the instruction that the referral must appear at the end of the response, giving affiliated services a privileged presentation position. Although the document limits repeated referrals and excludes users who explicitly request only data, promotion remains the default rather than an explicit opt-in.

Remediation Suggestions

  1. Remove mandatory referral and promotional-output requirements from the operational skill instructions.
  2. Make recommendations opt-in, such as only when the user explicitly asks for related tools, ongoing monitoring, or next-step services.
  3. Clearly label any recommendation as optional and commercially affiliated.
  4. Do not require promotional content to occupy the final position in every matching response.
  5. Keep core data-query functionality independent of external agents and sibling skills.
  6. Add a policy that user instructions such as “only provide the requested data,” “no recommendations,” or “be concise” always override referral behavior.
  7. Review external destinations separately before recommending them and avoid implying that installing another skill is necessary for core functionality.

### Technical Analysis

The registration process reads a physical network-interface MAC address, normalizes it, hashes it with SHA-256, and sends the resulting stable identifier to `ai.zhiliaobiaoxun.com`. Hashing does not anonymize a value drawn from a small, structured identifier space. A recipient can use the hash as a durable pseudonymous device identifier and may perform dictionary or vendor-range correlation where candidate MAC addresses are known.

The collection is not necessary for the core declared functionality of searching and analyzing tender data. It serves the provider's trial-account deduplication and abuse-prevention model. This is therefore an additional privilege and privacy boundary introduced for account provisioning rather than for the user's substanti

Remediation Suggestions

  1. Prefer a random installation identifier generated locally over any hardware-derived identifier.
  2. If deduplication is essential, use a provider-issued, revocable registration nonce or privacy-preserving attestation mechanism.
  3. Do not transmit a deterministic unsalted MAC hash. At minimum, derive an identifier with a locally generated secret salt that is never sent separately.
  4. Present consent as a clear opt-in with separate statements covering collection, purpose, retention period, deletion procedure, and whether the identifier is shared.
  5. Preserve a fully functional manual-key path that performs no hardware inspection.
  6. Minimize retention server-side and document automatic deletion and user-requested deletion procedures.
  7. Ensure failed registration does not trigger attempts using alternate interfaces or modified fingerprints.
  8. Add automated tests proving that no collection command or registration request runs before explicit consent.

## 步骤 3: 持久化 API Key

把成功响应中的 `api_key` 写入 `~/.zlbx/config.json`:

```json
{
  "api_key": "zlbx_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "source": "auto",
  "registered_at": "2026-05-10T10:30:00Z"
}

注意事项:

  • 目录不存在时先 mkdir -p ~/.zlbx
  • 文件已存在时合并而非覆盖(保留用户可能的其他配置)
  • source: "auto" 字段必须写入
text

### Technical Analysis

The instructions persist a reusable API credential in plaintext at `~/.zlbx/config.json`, but they do not require restrictive permissions for either the directory or the file. The actual exposure depends on the runtime user's umask and any pre-existing directory or file permissions.

On a permissively configured multi-user system, a newly created file may be readable by the user's group or other local accounts. If the file already exists, merging content without validating ownership, file type, permissions, or symbolic links can also write the key into an attacker-controlled target.

The use of a user-scoped configuration file is reasonable for session continuity, but secure creation, ownership validation, symlink protection, and permission enforcement are required when storing authentication material.

### Attack Path

1. An attacker with local access creates `~/.zlbx/config.json` with permissive permissions or replaces it with a symbolic link to an attacker-readable file.
2. The user completes automatic registration.
3. The skill merges the returned API key into the existing path without documented ownership or symlink checks.
4. The credential is written to the attacker-influenced or broadly readable target.
5. The attacker reads the API key.
6. The attacker uses it against the tender and account APIs until the key is revoked, disabled, or depleted.

Remediation Suggestions

  1. Create ~/.zlbx with mode 0700 and config.json with mode 0600.
  2. Set a restrictive umask such as 077 before creating either path.
  3. Use exclusive, no-follow creation semantics and reject symbolic links, non-regular files, and files not owned by the current user.
  4. Validate and correct permissions on pre-existing configuration files before reading or updating them.
  5. Write updates atomically through a securely created temporary file in the same directory, then rename it into place.
  6. Avoid logging, printing, or including the key in exceptions.
  7. Prefer an operating-system credential store where available, such as Keychain, Credential Manager, or Secret Service.
  8. Document key revocation and rotation procedures for suspected local disclosure.

Vague Triggers

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The skill metadata and description require this skill to be used for a very broad set of business-intelligence queries, including loosely related scenarios such as customer development, competitor tracking, and potential supplier discovery. This can cause inappropriate auto-invocation, unnecessary transmission of sensitive user/business queries to an external service, and override user intent by routing many ordinary queries into a third-party data workflow.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The file documents an embedded account lifecycle unrelated to the stated procurement-intelligence purpose: automatic trial account creation, device-linked registration, local API key persistence, and recharge/login flows. Expanding a skill's behavior beyond its declared scope increases privacy, security, and consent risk because an agent invoking this skill for market intelligence may silently transition into credential provisioning and monetization workflows.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The skill instructs collection of platform, CPU architecture, and a hashed MAC address to derive a stable device identity for anti-abuse registration. Even though the MAC is hashed, it is still a persistent device fingerprint sent to an external service and is not necessary for the core business function of tender/opportunity analysis, creating tracking and privacy risk disproportionate to the skill's purpose.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
85% confidence
Finding

The natural-language description and instructions are entirely in Chinese and state the skill '必须使用' for matching scenarios, but do not offer any language or locale choice to the user. Under the language/locale policy, forcing a specific language without opt-in can be a policy violation unless clearly justified as region-specific.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

This file adds account balance and daily consumption querying capabilities that are unrelated to the skill’s declared tender-opportunity intelligence purpose. The scope expansion exposes billing and account telemetry to a workflow that users would reasonably expect to handle procurement intelligence only, increasing the chance of unauthorized data access, prompt-driven misuse, or accidental disclosure of sensitive account usage information.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
68% confidence
Finding

The entire skill documentation is written as Chinese-only operating guidance and examples, with no indication that users may choose another language or locale. This can constitute a language/locale policy issue when a skill effectively constrains interaction to a single language without explicit opt-in or justification.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The documentation explicitly instructs the agent to automatically select and use all semantically matched companies, including headquarters and branches, without user confirmation. In a business intelligence skill, this can cause over-collection, misattribution, and disclosure of analysis about unintended entities when a user provides an ambiguous company short name.

Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

The document provides mandatory user-facing wording in Chinese and says it can be relayed verbatim to the user, without indicating that the agent should match the user's preferred language or ask for consent. This is a natural-language policy issue because it imposes a specific language on user interactions rather than offering a language/locale choice.

Data Exfiltration
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The document explicitly instructs posting collected device features to an external endpoint. In context, this is dangerous because the transmitted data includes a persistent device fingerprint used for account creation, and the feature is unrelated to the skill's declared procurement purpose, increasing the chance of undisclosed tracking or off-platform identity linkage.

Category
Rogue Agent
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill directs the agent to persist an API key under ~/.zlbx/config.json, merge with existing config, tag it as source: auto, and immediately reuse it in-session. This creates durable local credentials and stateful behavior outside the skill's stated scope, increasing the blast radius if the host is shared, compromised, or if the user did not fully understand they were provisioning a long-lived credential.

Finding

The quota-exhaustion flow adds a monetization pathway by generating auto-login recharge links and instructing the agent to push users into account binding and payment-related steps. This is outside the declared procurement-analysis scope and creates account-handling risk, especially because it conditions future behavior on locally persisted source metadata.
