Low

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

This skill’s required workflow uses `read_file(filetype="pdf"... )` on a user-supplied PDF and, if it’s binary/unreadable, runs `run_shell("pdftotext /path/to/document.pdf -")` and feeds `result.stdout` (extracted PDF text) into the agent context, so the outsider source category is “PDF document text downloaded/forwarded by someone other than the operating user,” depending on what the operating user provides at runtime.
