Linkedin Ads CLI

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The skill appears to be a coherent LinkedIn marketing integration, with expected access to ad analytics and lead data but no evidence of hidden or destructive behavior.

Install only if you intend to let the agent work with authorized LinkedIn Marketing data. Use least-privileged credentials, avoid fetching lead submissions unless needed, filter by account/form/date where possible, and avoid displaying unnecessary personal information.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly enables retrieval of lead form submissions, which can contain personal data, but it provides no user-facing privacy warning, consent check, or minimization guidance. In this context, the omission increases the risk that an agent will fetch and expose sensitive lead information more broadly than the user intended.

Content
Default metric fields (when `--fields` is not specified): `impressions`, `clicks`, `costInLocalCurrency`, `costInUsd`, `externalWebsiteConversions`, `likes`, `comments`, `shares`, `follows`, `videoViews`

The CLI passes `--fields` and `--pivot` values directly to the LinkedIn API without validation. Additional fields and pivot values beyond the documented defaults may be available. Refer to the [LinkedIn Ad Analytics API docs](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/marketing/integrations/ads-reporting/ads-reporting) for the full list.
