Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed Paradex trading-strategy assistant that analyzes market data and templates but does not execute trades or install anything.

Before installing, understand that this skill can provide trading strategy analysis and example parameters, not guaranteed financial outcomes. Review any generated strategy yourself, and use separate authenticated order tools only when you intentionally want to place trades.

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
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration

Finding

The trigger text is very broad and includes generic phrases like "build me a bot," "trading plan," and "backtest this idea," which can cause the skill to activate on non-Paradex or general trading requests. Over-broad activation is dangerous because it can hijack routing from more appropriate skills, leading to incorrect tool use, unintended financial guidance context, or unnecessary exposure of market-analysis capabilities in conversations that did not clearly request this domain.
