Security audit

MarketTime

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The MarketTime features fit their purpose, but setup can execute unverified downloaded code without a separate approval step.

Review setup before installing. Prefer installing a verified, pinned CLI yourself, and review or disable its automatic bundled-skill synchronization. Check the MarketTime permissions granted through OOMOL. The packaged instructions were fully reviewed, but the downloaded installers and hosted connector code were not verified; no malicious intent was established.

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
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • MCP Tool PoisoningHidden Instructions, Unicode Deception, Parameter Description Injection
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands

Description-Behavior Mismatch

High
Category
MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The supplied command performs remote installer execution, which is not disclosed by the description. The chunk shows no MarketTime access or evidence that this installer is a supporting dependency for the declared functionality. The downloaded script's further behavior cannot be determined from the supplied code.

External Script Fetching

High
Category
Supply Chain
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The fallback pipes a mutable remote installer directly into Bash without version pinning or independent integrity verification; the PowerShell alternative uses the same fetch-and-execute pattern. Compromise of the installer host or distribution pipeline could execute arbitrary code with the agent's local privileges, potentially exposing accessible files and credentials. Its conditional use and legitimate setup purpose reduce exposure but do not remove this supply-chain risk.

Autonomous Decision Making

Medium
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
80% confidence
Finding

Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
