Risk Level: SAFE
Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The script
scripts/validate_format.pyutilizessubprocess.run()to execute the system utilitiespdfinfoandpdffontsfor document analysis. - Evidence: Lines 56 and 86 in
scripts/validate_format.pyshow command execution using list-based arguments. - Assessment: The implementation is secure because it does not use
shell=True, preventing shell injection vulnerabilities. The use of these tools is appropriate for the skill's purpose of validating PDF formatting against venue requirements. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill defines a data ingestion surface by reading and processing user-provided LaTeX and PDF files.
- Evidence:
scripts/customize_template.pyreads LaTeX files for placeholder replacement, andscripts/validate_format.pyparses PDF metadata. - Assessment: This represents an indirect prompt injection surface; however, the risk is negligible as the processing logic is restricted to specific regex substitutions and metadata extraction without passing raw content to an execution context.
- [SAFE]: A comprehensive scan of the skill's 25 files, including templates, reference guides, and Python scripts, revealed no evidence of obfuscation, hardcoded credentials, or data exfiltration.
- Context: The skill refers to an external tool
generate_schematic.pyin its documentation which is not present in the package, likely referring to a companion skill. All referenced external URLs are official scientific journals and funding agencies.
