2 confirmed security findings require attention.

Installation context

Historical evidence

This report may not describe the currently installable artifact. Open the current Skill page for install guidance.

Open current Skill page

This report does not block or authorize the manifest or ZIP.

Static analysis reported command execution, hardcoded IP, weak cryptography, and reconnaissance patterns. Manual review found no malicious code or prompt injection; most matches are Markdown, Mermaid syntax, examples, and Azure query documentation. The skill is publishable with a warning because it can query Azure inventory through MCP or Azure CLI and write architecture documentation locally.

RISK-001 Medium
SKILL.md:27SKILL.md:40SKILL.md:118-120references/azure-resource-graph.md:3references/azure-resource-graph.md:7references/azure-resource-graph.md:17-21
Azure Inventory Access Through CLI and MCP Queries
The skill directs agents to list resource groups, query all resources, and use Azure Resource Graph or Azure CLI. This is legitimate for diagram generation, but it can expose subscription inventory, resource names, topology, and configuration details when run with broad credentials.
The instructions explicitly use Azure CLI or MCP queries against live Azure inventory. The behavior is read-only and aligned with the skill purpose, so the risk is exposure through authorized access rather than malicious execution.
RISK-002 Medium
SKILL.md:83-85SKILL.md:112-114
Local Architecture Documentation May Contain Sensitive Topology
The skill instructs agents to create a Markdown architecture file from discovered Azure resources. This is expected output, but generated files can preserve internal topology, resource names, regions, and relationship details in the workspace.
The file creation requirement is direct and intentional. The sensitivity depends on the user environment, so this is a moderate data-handling concern rather than a blocking issue.

Static Command Execution Matches Are Documentation
The Ruby or shell backtick alerts occur in Markdown inline code, fenced examples, Mermaid syntax, and Azure CLI guidance. No executable script, dynamic shell construction, or unsanitized command injection path was found in these files.
The cited files are Markdown instructions and examples, not runnable source files. The only meaningful command behavior is documented Azure CLI usage, which is already captured as a medium operational risk.

assets/example-diagram.md:12assets/example-diagram.md:13assets/example-diagram.md:14
Hardcoded IP Matches Are Private Example Addresses
The hardcoded IP findings are RFC 1918 address ranges inside a sample Mermaid diagram. They are illustrative network labels, not external endpoints or callback infrastructure.
The addresses are clearly private subnet examples embedded in diagram labels. There is no code that connects to them or sends data to them.

Weak Cryptography And Reconnaissance Matches Are Textual False Positives
The weak cryptography and reconnaissance alerts match ordinary Markdown, Mermaid labels, headings, and query examples. No hashing implementation, encryption downgrade, credential capture, host reconnaissance, or malicious scanning behavior was found.
Manual review of the cited lines shows documentation text and diagram syntax. The scanner appears to have matched tokens such as graph labels, Markdown structure, and Azure inventory language without executable security impact.
