Risk Level: MEDIUM
Full Analysis
MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
- Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). The required runtime path ingests OUTSIDER free text via the user-supplied
urlpassed toyt-dlp --dump-json --no-playlist, whereyt-dlpfetches remote page metadata and returns it as readable JSON (e.g.,title,uploader) that the script parses and prints into the agent context.
MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
- Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.80). The script calls pip at runtime to install the yt-dlp package (which will be fetched and executed from PyPI, e.g. https://pypi.org/project/yt-dlp or https://pypi.org/simple/yt-dlp/), so it fetches and runs remote code as a required runtime dependency.
