Security audit

Regime Micro

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple paid market-signal lookup, but it asks for a wallet private key and can authorize paid calls automatically.

Review before installing. Use only a dedicated low-balance wallet for this skill, assume repeated agent-loop calls can spend USDC automatically, and avoid providing any primary trading, treasury, or high-value wallet private key.

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

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Finding

The skill requires access to an EVM private key even though its advertised function is only to fetch a market regime label. While payment authorization may be part of the x402 model, exposing a signing key to a low-complexity informational skill expands secret access unnecessarily and increases the blast radius if the endpoint, client library, or calling workflow is compromised.

Missing User Warnings

Finding

The skill states that the x402 client handles payment authorization automatically and shows passing the user's EVM private key, but it does not clearly warn that invoking the request may trigger paid wallet-authorized transactions. This can mislead operators into treating the call like an ordinary unauthenticated GET, causing unintended spending and unsafe handling of a highly sensitive secret.
