Skill Finder Cn 1.0.1

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a coherent ClawHub skill finder; its main risk is that it can steer users toward installing other skills and uses Chinese-oriented output.

Before installing, expect this skill to search ClawHub and may recommend installing other skills. Review any recommended skill before approving installation, and expect Chinese-oriented prompts/output unless you override it in your request.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • 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

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The trigger phrase list is broad enough to match ordinary requests about finding tools or help, which can cause the skill to activate outside its intended scope. Overbroad activation increases the chance that this skill intercepts unrelated conversations and nudges users toward searching or installing third-party skills they did not explicitly request.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The usage examples describe common natural-language requests without strong scope constraints, so the agent may invoke this skill for generic assistance queries. In a marketplace-installation context, ambiguous activation can steer users into package discovery and installation workflows when they only asked for advice, increasing supply-chain and consent risks.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The output format requires '简短描述(中文)', which imposes a specific language on responses. This is a locale/language policy concern because the file does not indicate user opt-in or provide an alternative based on user preference.

Skill Enumeration

Medium
Category
Agent Snooping
Confidence
80% confidence
Finding

Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding

The script contains user-facing natural-language strings only in Chinese, including the title comment and usage output. Under the policy, forcing a specific language without user opt-in or a documented regional justification is a natural-language policy violation.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
83% confidence
Finding

The note '中文输出优化' indicates the skill is optimized around Chinese output, but the file does not clarify that this is optional or limited to a Chinese-speaking audience. This supports the broader language-forcing pattern elsewhere in the document.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The package name and description explicitly label the skill as 'CN' / '查找器', indicating a Chinese-language or China-specific variant, but the file provides no user choice, opt-in, or justification for this locale constraint. This can violate language/locale policy guidance when a skill appears to enforce a specific locale by default.
