Freeland x402 eSIM

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed eSIM purchasing workflow with payment-related risk, but its behavior matches its stated purpose and includes reasonable safeguards.

Install this only if you want an agent to help buy Freeland travel eSIMs with Base USDC. Before signing any wallet challenge, verify the destination, plan, price, network, USDC asset, and recipient service, and keep delivery tokens, QR codes, and activation details private.

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
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The skill description uses broad triggers like 'discover', 'compare', 'buy', and 'retrieve' that could cause the agent to invoke this capability for loosely related commerce or connectivity requests. Because the skill can lead to external API interaction and blockchain payment flow, overbroad routing increases the chance of unintended purchase-oriented actions in the wrong user context.

Finding

This instruction initiates a purchase flow against an external endpoint and can lead directly to a blockchain payment challenge. Even though the flow includes some validation steps, it creates a high-impact action path where an over-permissive or mis-invoked agent could trigger purchase preparation or payment execution against a third-party service.

## Buy directly

1. Generate one stable idempotency key for the purchase attempt.
2. Send `POST https://api.x402card.org/api/esim/purchase` with `{ "planId": "<live-plan-id>", "idempotencyKey": "<stable-key>" }` and no payment header.
3. Require HTTP `402` and decode `PAYMENT-REQUIRED`. Verify all of the following:
   - x402 version `2` and scheme `exact`;
   - network `eip155:8453`;
