Risk Level: MEDIUM
Full Analysis

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

  • Third-party content exposure detected (medium risk: 0.30). The required runtime workflow ingests outsider-authored free text via the results of vulnerability scanners (e.g., npm audit, safety check, govulncheck, cargo audit) executed in the user’s project directory, whose JSON/stdout is then parsed and used to construct reports/SBOMs.

MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).

  • Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.90). The workflow and install steps execute "go install golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck@latest" at runtime, which fetches and installs remote Go code that is then executed as a required scanner dependency (golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck@latest).
