Clawhub Ostium With Cai

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed CAI/Ostium trading skill with high financial risk, but its behavior is coherent with its stated purpose and no hidden execution or persistence was found.

Install only if you intend to let an agent trade Ostium perpetuals through CAI. Use the narrowest CAI API scope available, keep funded balances limited to what you are willing to risk, and require explicit confirmation in your own workflow before opening, closing, or increasing leveraged positions.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep

Finding

The skill enables custodial trading actions that can directly move user funds and incur losses, but it does not present an explicit warning about financial risk or that the agent may place trades using a custodial wallet. In this context, omission of that warning can mislead users about the consequences of invoking the skill, increasing the chance of unintended or inadequately informed trading activity.
