Security audit

AIPM DeepNews Daily

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill fetches public AI news feeds, translates titles and summaries to Chinese, and saves a local digest without hidden or high-impact behavior.

Install only if you are comfortable with third-party Python dependencies, outbound requests to the listed RSS feeds, and Google Translate receiving article titles and summaries. Avoid adding private or internal feeds unless you are comfortable sending that feed content to the translation service.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding
The skill advertises automatic translation using Google Translate without warning that fetched article text or excerpts may be transmitted to an external third-party service. This creates a data egress and privacy risk, especially if feeds contain copyrighted, sensitive, internal, or user-supplied content that operators may not expect to leave the local environment.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding
The script sends article titles and summaries to googletrans, which relies on an external translation service, without any disclosure, consent, or configuration to disable that transfer. Even if the content is public RSS data, it still causes undisclosed third-party network sharing and may expose user-selected feeds, internal/custom feed contents, or operational metadata in some deployments.
