Security
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: 0.90). The skill includes runtime installation commands that fetch and execute public GitHub content (e.g., the curl + wget sequence in rules/sdks/dotnet.md and rules/sdks/java.md that query https://api.github.com and download/run release assets like otel-dotnet-auto-install.sh or opentelemetry-javaagent.jar), which clearly ingests untrusted third-party web content that can materially change tool behavior.
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 includes runtime install commands that fetch and execute remote code—e.g., downloading and running the .NET install script from https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet-instrumentation/releases/download/${OTEL_DOTNET_VERSION}/otel-dotnet-auto-install.sh and retrieving the Java agent jar from https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java-instrumentation/releases/download/${OTEL_JAVA_VERSION}/opentelemetry-javaagent.jar—so external content is fetched at runtime and executed.
