Security audit

Alumni Career Tracker

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a local alumni career tracking tool that handles sensitive alumni data, but the access is disclosed, purpose-aligned, and not hidden or externally exfiltrating.

Install only if you are prepared to treat alumni data as sensitive. Use consented data, avoid storing individual salary or private notes unless necessary, restrict exported files, share aggregate reports where possible, and consider pinning dependencies in a controlled environment.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Confidence
81% confidence
Finding
The documented `--update-linkedin` capability expands the skill from offline alumni analysis into external profile monitoring and data enrichment, which introduces privacy, consent, and scope-creep risks. Even if intended for benign record maintenance, automated collection or updating of LinkedIn-derived data can process personal information without clear authorization and may violate platform terms or institutional policy.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Medium
Confidence
87% confidence
Finding
The skill can import and export raw alumni records, including potentially sensitive personal and career data such as names, organizations, locations, salary ranges, and notes. In the context of a skill described as analysis/guidance, this materially increases data exposure risk because it enables bulk extraction and ingestion of PII-like datasets beyond the minimum needed for the advertised function.
