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 explicitly fetches and ingests public third-party content—e.g., the Create workflow (foundry-agent/create/create.md Step 3–4) uses the GitHub API to browse and download sample files, the WebSearchPreviewTool/Bing grounding (references/tool-web-search.md and tool-bing-grounding.md) returns live web results, and the toolbox/MCP tooling (references/toolbox.md and tool-mcp.md) connects to remote MCP endpoints—and those fetched, user-generated, or public web results are read and used by the agent as part of required workflows, so untrusted third-party content can materially influence actions.
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: 1.00). The skill explicitly instructs runtime downloads of sample code via the GitHub Contents API (e.g. https://api.github.com/repos/microsoft-foundry/foundry-samples/contents/{selected_sample_path}) and curl commands to fetch code that is then used as the agent project (i.e., remote code that will be executed/run), making this a required runtime external dependency that can control/execute agent behavior.
