Security audit

Pipeworx timezone

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple timezone helper that uses a disclosed Pipeworx MCP endpoint, with a privacy note around optional IP-based lookup.

Install only if you are comfortable sending timezone queries to gateway.pipeworx.io. Avoid using IP-based lookup for sensitive users or environments unless you accept that an IP address may be processed by the external service.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The skill advertises IP-based timezone lookup but provides no warning that a user's IP address may be transmitted to a third-party service for geolocation. IP addresses are personal data in many contexts, and silently sending them off-platform can create privacy, compliance, and user-consent issues. The skill context makes this more concerning because the feature is presented as a normal utility without any disclosure or minimization guidance.
