Risk Level: MEDIUM
Full Analysis
MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
- Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.75). The required runtime workflow for this skill is the evaluation harness (
scripts/evaluation.py) which sends the evaluation question and then repeatedly ingeststool_resultcontent returned by the connected MCP server (connection.call_tool(...)→tool_response→ appended intomessagesastool_result), and that tool output can include outsider-authored free text from remote/public systems the MCP server fetches.
MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
- Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.80). The evaluation harness connects at runtime to a user-specified MCP server URL (e.g., https://example.com/mcp) and fetches the server's tool definitions which are passed into the LLM as "tools", directly influencing the agent's behavior and are required for the evaluation to run.
