Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS] (MEDIUM): The skill requires installing the
yahooquerypackage and its dependencies (pandas,requests-futures,tqdm,beautifulsoup4,lxml) from PyPI. While these are common libraries, PyPI is not an automatically trusted source under the defined security framework.\n- [COMMAND_EXECUTION] (LOW): The documentation includes instructions to executepython3 -m pip installto set up the required environment.\n- [PROMPT_INJECTION] (MEDIUM): Category 8: Indirect Prompt Injection surface identified. The skill ingests untrusted data from Yahoo Finance endpoints.\n - Ingestion points:
Ticker.news(),Ticker.technical_insights(), andResearch.reports().\n - Boundary markers: Absent; data is retrieved and processed as raw strings or DataFrames.\n
- Capability inventory: Network requests to external Yahoo Finance APIs.\n
- Sanitization: No evidence of sanitization or filtering for embedded instructions in the retrieved news or research content.\n- [CREDENTIALS_UNSAFE] (LOW): documentation examples in
SKILL.mdandreferences/advanced.mdsuggest passing rawpasswordstrings to theResearchclass. While the examples use placeholders, this practice can lead to hardcoded credentials in user scripts.
