Extruct API Skill

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed Extruct API helper for company and people enrichment, with privacy and deletion risks users should manage explicitly.

Install only if you intend to let an agent use your Extruct account for company/table operations and business contact enrichment. Require explicit confirmation before deletes or bulk runs, and use email/phone/LinkedIn enrichment only where you have authorization and a lawful business basis.

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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • 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

Finding

The skill explicitly enables contact-finding and people enrichment workflows, including email and phone discovery, but it provides no privacy, consent, or acceptable-use guardrails. In a skill centered on discovering and enriching personal/contact data, the absence of warnings or handling constraints increases the risk of misuse for scraping, profiling, or unauthorized outreach.

Autonomous Decision Making

Confidence

Finding

Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.

- if the URL includes extra path segments, query params, or fragments, still extract the id from the `/tables/<table_id>` or `/tasks/<task_id>` segment
- if the user provides a raw table UUID, use it directly as the table id
- if the user provides a raw task UUID, use it directly as the task id
- do not ask the user to restate an id that is already present in the URL
- when a table URL is present, default to the existing-table workflow unless the user explicitly asks for a new table or a search workflow
- when a task URL is present, default to the Deep Search task workflow unless the user explicitly asks to start a new search task

Finding

The guide encourages use of person-level enrichment features such as email finding, phone finding, and reverse email lookup without any accompanying warning about privacy-sensitive personal data handling, lawful basis, or consent requirements. In an agent skill, this omission can normalize automated collection of direct contact details and profile linkage in ways that may violate policy, user expectations, or data protection rules when used on real individuals.

Finding

This playbook explicitly supports enrichment of people rows with email, phone, LinkedIn, and contact-finding workflows, but it does not include any privacy, consent, permissible-use, or legal-compliance guardrails. In a people-research context, that omission materially increases the risk of misuse for intrusive profiling, unauthorized contact harvesting, or processing personal data without an appropriate basis.
