Tooling exists specifically to be used offline, and there's a decently large attack surface area exposed via the libraries it uses and formats that are processed (particularly assimp, also basisu maybe).

As a bit of security paranoia, it might be worth aggressively sandboxing these tools.

I'm using the tools in a worker process and providing isolation through said workers environment (and any reasonable engineer should do the same for any production service that deals in untrusted data!) but double-dipping here is essentially free.
