Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The script
scripts/generate_pdf.pyuses thesubprocessmodule to execute system commands forpandocandxelatex. This is used to convert markdown documents into PDF files. While legitimate for document generation, it constitutes execution of external binary tools. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill instructs users to install external system dependencies such as
pandocandMacTeX/TeX Livevia package managers likebrewandapt-get. Additionally,scripts/verify_citations.pymakes network requests to well-known research services includingdoi.organdapi.crossref.orgto retrieve paper metadata. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is susceptible to Indirect Prompt Injection (Category 8) due to the following evidence chain:
- Ingestion points: Untrusted data from scientific databases (titles, abstracts, and metadata) is ingested into the agent's context through search results processed by
scripts/search_databases.py. - Boundary markers: The skill does not implement explicit boundary markers or instructions for the agent to ignore potentially malicious content embedded within research paper abstracts or titles.
- Capability inventory: The skill has capabilities including network access via
requestsinscripts/verify_citations.pyand local command execution viasubprocessinscripts/generate_pdf.py. - Sanitization: There is no evidence of sanitization or filtering of the external research content before it is synthesized into the final literature review document.
