Is this agent skill safe to install?

Gen Agent Trust Hubfail
This skill performs web searches and extracts content using the Brave Search API. Its primary security risk is Indirect Prompt Injection, as it retrieves and processes untrusted web content that could contain malicious instructions for the AI agent. Additionally, the lack of URL validation allows for potential Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) against internal network resources.
