Apple Docs

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This looks like a legitimate Apple documentation lookup tool, but one command can fetch arbitrary web URLs beyond Apple documentation.

Install only if you are comfortable with a read-only docs tool that makes outbound requests. Prefer using it for Apple Developer documentation paths and WWDC lookups; be cautious about letting an agent pass full URLs to the doc command because it can retrieve non-Apple or internal network content if the runtime can reach it.

MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly states it uses native fetch and references an external MCP server plus Apple documentation endpoints, which indicates network access is part of its behavior. Having effective network capability without declared permissions weakens transparency and policy enforcement, making it harder for a host system or user to assess data exfiltration risk or restrict outbound requests.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The `doc` command accepts any user-supplied `http`/`https` URL and then fetches it directly, rather than restricting requests to Apple Developer documentation domains and paths. This creates an SSRF-style primitive in the skill context: an agent or user can be induced to retrieve arbitrary remote content, including internal services if network access is available, and then print returned data to output.
