Caveat verdict

alibabacloud-data-agent-skill

18
🔴 Dangerous
High-risk patterns flagged for review — automated deep scan, not behaviorally verified.

The skill invokes Alibaba Cloud Apsara Data Agent for Analytics via CLI, which requires package installation and credential access, leading to significant security concerns.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. Caveat flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.
