Risk Level: HIGH
Full Analysis

HIGH W007: Insecure credential handling detected in skill instructions.

  • Insecure credential handling detected (high risk: 0.80). The prompt includes explicit examples that set Entrez.api_key = "your_api_key_here" and advises using API keys for NCBI rate limits, which encourages embedding secret values directly in generated code/outputs and thus creates an exfiltration risk.

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

  • Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.90). This skill explicitly fetches and parses open/public third-party content (e.g., via Bio.Entrez for NCBI PubMed/GenBank, Bio.Blast.NCBIWWW for NCBI BLAST results, and Bio.PDB's PDBList.retrieve_pdb_file for PDB files), so the agent will read and interpret untrusted/public user-contributed web content as part of its workflow.
