Vwap

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a low-privilege static finance reference script, but it is labeled as a VWAP tool while mostly outputting generic placeholder finance content.

Review this before installing if you need accurate VWAP material. It does not appear to endanger your system, credentials, or files, but it should not be relied on for trading, compliance, or educational decisions without independent verification or substantial content correction.

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

MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence

Finding

The script is harmless and does not access external resources or perform hidden actions, but its actual content does not accurately match the declared purpose. It presents itself as a 'Vwap reference tool,' yet the output is mostly boilerplate, generic finance/reference text with placeholder-style descriptions. The formulas section includes broad financial formulas rather than VWAP-specific formulas, and the glossary/intro do not define VWAP beyond tautological wording. This makes the primary purpose materially different: it is a generic static finance reference stub mislabeled as a VWAP tool.

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The script advertises itself as a VWAP reference tool, but nearly all output is generic finance filler and does not provide meaningful VWAP-specific guidance. This is dangerous because users or downstream agents may rely on mislabeled content for trading, compliance, or educational decisions, leading to misinformation and incorrect actions in a finance context.

Intent-Code Divergence

Category

Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The inline documentation and branding claim the script is a VWAP reference tool, but the commands do not substantively cover VWAP and instead present generic finance text. This mismatch increases the risk of deceptive or unreliable tool behavior because operators may trust the name and documentation without verifying the actual output quality.
