HashPack Wallet

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is a small HashPack/Hedera integration guide, but it includes fund-moving transaction signing examples without clear user-consent or safety guidance.

Review this skill carefully before installation. It appears to be a simple integration reference, not malware, but any agent using it should add mandatory transaction review and explicit user approval before signing or submitting Hedera transactions, especially on mainnet.

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

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly demonstrates transaction signing for Hedera transfers and describes state-changing transaction types, but it provides no warning that these operations can move funds, mutate on-chain state, or require careful user confirmation. In an agent-skill context, omission of such warnings increases the risk that an integrator or downstream agent will treat signing as routine, potentially leading to unintended financial actions or unsafe automation.
