MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).

  • Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). The skill fetches bioRxiv preprint metadata (including free-text title and abstract) from the public bioRxiv API at runtime (requests.get to https://api.biorxiv.org/details/biorxiv/... / .../details/biorxiv/{start}/{end}/{category}), and those fields are then formatted into JSON and can be passed into the agent’s LLM context as readable text—an outsider-authored source (preprint authors) via public web content.
