Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This appears to be a real EVM wallet-security skill, but it asks for wallet-signing authority and its revoke tool can also grant token approvals.

Install only after reviewing the signing and transaction authority. Use a dedicated low-balance wallet, keep JANUS_API_URL pointed at the intended service, prefer free or dry-run modes first, review x402 payment terms before signing, and do not run --execute or pass --allowance unless you intend to submit that exact on-chain approval transaction.

Finding
Although presented as a revoke tool, the script accepts an arbitrary --allowance value and can execute approve(spender, amount) on-chain, including nonzero approvals. In a wallet-security context, this is dangerous because a user or downstream agent may trust the tool to only reduce risk, while it can silently create or expand token spending permissions for any spender if invoked with crafted inputs.
