Low-risk findings.

2 low severity findings. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.

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

The workflow’s runtime path retrieves MCP tools from a Databricks MCP server endpoint (e.g., `mcp_client.get_tools()` against `/api/2.0/mcp/genie/...`), meaning outsider-authored text could be ingested via the MCP server’s tool outputs without the agent selecting a specific item first.

Low

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

The skill fetches tool definitions at runtime from MCP endpoints (e.g., f"{host}/api/2.0/mcp/genie/01234567-89ab-cdef" and https://mcp-my-server.cloud.databricks.com/mcp), which are used by mcp_client.get_tools() to inject remote tool metadata that directly controls agent behavior/instructions.
