Agentic Commerce Relay

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is a clear USDC cross-chain relay helper, but it should be used only as a real-money transaction tool that handles a wallet private key.

Install only if you understand that this is for signing real blockchain transactions. Use a dedicated low-balance wallet, verify the actual relay script before running it, start with testnets or minimal amounts, and keep private keys out of logs, command history, and committed files.

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
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • 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
94% confidence
Finding
The documentation tells users to run a relay that performs live cross-chain settlement but does not clearly warn that it will sign and submit real on-chain transactions, including a USDC burn on the source chain. In an agent skill context, this omission is dangerous because operators may treat the command as a harmless utility invocation and unintentionally authorize irreversible asset movement with their private key.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The skill documentation instructs users to provide a raw PRIVATE_KEY environment variable without any warning about secret exposure risks such as shell history, process inspection, CI logs, and accidental commits. Because this skill directly handles real-value settlement, poor credential hygiene can lead to wallet compromise and theft of funds beyond the intended relay transaction.
