Security audit

Binance Exchange

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill queries public Binance market data and I found no hidden persistence, credential access, trading actions, or destructive behavior.

Install only if you are comfortable with the skill sending market-data queries to Binance and, for most scripts, routing them through a local proxy at 127.0.0.1:1082. It does not use API keys or place trades, but you should verify your proxy configuration and expect dependencies such as curl, jq, and bc.

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

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The script emits status and error messages in Chinese string literals, which imposes a specific language on users without any opt-in or documented locale constraint. This is a natural-language policy issue because the file provides no way to select or justify the language used.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The script defines a proxy at L04 and uses curl to send requests to the Binance API at L13, but there is no warning, prompt, or descriptive comment disclosing that it will make external network connections via a local proxy. Users running the script may not realize it depends on and transmits requests through network infrastructure.

Content

No source excerpt is available for this finding.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding

With no manifest available, the script's observable purpose is fetching Binance K-line data as indicated by its header comments. Hard-coding curl to use a local HTTP proxy adds a network-routing capability beyond simply retrieving market data, and that extra capability is not explained or justified by the script's documentation.
