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

High: the wrapper fetches outsider web API content at runtime (e.g., `https://jaspar.elixir.no/api/v1/matrix/...`) and prints/parses it as text/JSON/PFM (`scripts/jaspar_api.py:get_tf_motif` → `_CLIENT.fetch_text` / `fetch_json` then printed), which can include free-form fields that may contain prompt-injection strings.
