MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
- Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.75). Biopython’s runtime workflow can fetch and parse outsider-authored free text from NCBI (e.g.,
Bio.Entrez.efetch(..., retmode="text"/"xml")returning GenBank/abstract/Medline content that is then read into the agent context viaEntrez.read()orhandle.read()), which is outsider-provided.
