Mineru Pdf

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This PDF parsing skill is mostly coherent, but an included test helper can execute unintended local code if run with crafted arguments.

Install only if you are comfortable with mcp-mineru processing local documents. Prefer parse.py or the scoped MCP setup, avoid running test.sh with filenames or page values from untrusted sources, and consider isolating or pinning the external package when handling sensitive PDFs.

Finding
The skill clearly instructs users to run commands that read arbitrary local files and write parsed output to user-specified directories, yet the skill metadata declares no permissions. This creates a transparency and consent problem: an agent or user may invoke file-capable functionality without an explicit permission declaration, increasing the risk of unintended access to sensitive PDFs or writes to unexpected locations.
