1 medium severity finding. This skill can be installed but you should review these findings before use.
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.
Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). At runtime, the skill queries Windows Event Log (wevtutil XML) for Event ID 4104/4103 and parses `<Data Name='ScriptBlockText'>...` into `script_block`, then decodes any `-enc <Base64>` blob and includes the decoded text in the JSON output/LLM context—this is outsider-authored free text originating from other users’ executed PowerShell captured in logs.
