FinXData

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a straightforward FinXData finance API helper that uses an API key and outbound requests as disclosed, with no hidden persistence or destructive actions found.

Install only if you intend to let the agent query FinXData. Keep FINXDATA_API_KEY private, do not set FINXDATA_BASE_URL unless you trust the destination, and remember that returned financial data should be treated as information, not investment advice.

Finding
The skill instructs use of shell commands, network access, and environment variables containing sensitive credentials, but it does not declare permissions or boundaries for those capabilities. That gap can cause an agent runtime or reviewer to underestimate the skill’s access, increasing the risk of unintended command execution, credential exposure, or outbound requests to attacker-controlled endpoints if configuration is altered.
