2 findings — 2 medium severity. This skill can be installed but you should review these findings before use.
W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk)
What this means
The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
Why it was flagged
Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). The skill’s workflow is browser automation (navigate/wait/snapshot/evaluate_script) and can ingest arbitrary page text from runtime-fetched web content into the LLM context via `take_snapshot`/`evaluate_script` on the currently selected page, which is outsider-authored free text.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent)
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.90). The skill requires starting the MCP server with "npx chrome-devtools-mcp@latest" which will fetch and execute remote code from the chrome-devtools-mcp npm package at runtime (e.g. https://www.npmjs.com/package/chrome-devtools-mcp), so this is a runtime external dependency that executes remote code.
