FarmDash Futures Strategist

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed Hyperliquid futures trading skill with real financial execution capability, but its artifacts consistently require explicit user confirmation, fresh user signatures, and scoped FarmDash/Hyperliquid API use.

Install only if you want an agent to help with Hyperliquid perpetual-futures workflows. Treat it as financially high-impact: review every order or cancellation carefully, verify fees and leverage, never provide private keys or seed phrases, and rely on the stated requirement that each trade needs your fresh confirmation and wallet signature.

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
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code
