Security audit

Qweather

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a small weather lookup skill with disclosed QWeather API use; the main caution is that it embeds a shared API key.

Install only if you are comfortable sending requested city codes, city names, or coordinates to QWeather through the publisher-provided shared API key. Prefer a version that lets users configure their own QWeather API host and key, and expect some advertised features to need cleanup.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding
The document exposes a directly usable QWeather API key in plaintext. Even if the key has host/IP restrictions, publishing live credentials enables unauthorized use, quota exhaustion, service abuse, and creates unnecessary attack surface if restrictions are misconfigured or later relaxed.

Missing User Warnings

High
Confidence
99% confidence
Finding
Publishing a live credential in Markdown without any sensitivity warning or secure handling guidance normalizes unsafe secret management and allows anyone with repository access to reuse the key. In a skill context, this is more dangerous because documentation is broadly readable and likely to be copied, indexed, or logged.
