Decodo Web Scraper

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a straightforward Decodo web-scraping skill that sends user-chosen searches or URLs to Decodo using a Decodo API token, with no hidden persistence or destructive behavior found.

Install only if you are comfortable sharing submitted URLs, search terms, video IDs, and returned scraping requests with Decodo. Use a dedicated Decodo token, keep it out of shared repos, avoid sensitive internal URLs or regulated data, and pin dependencies in controlled or production environments.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The skill encourages users to submit arbitrary URLs and search queries, but it does not prominently warn that those inputs and the fetched page contents are transmitted to Decodo's third-party scraping API. This can lead to unintended disclosure of sensitive URLs, internal resources, search terms, or scraped data to an external processor, which is especially risky in agent workflows where users may not realize data leaves the local environment.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
87% confidence
Finding
The skill forwards arbitrary user-provided queries or URLs, along with an authorization token, to a third-party external scraping API. In a skill context, this creates a real privacy and data-governance risk because users may not realize their inputs are being transmitted off-platform, and supplied URLs may reference sensitive internal resources if upstream controls are weak.
