AI Security Review

scanned 7d ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

The active tool-call path forwards a configured wallet private key to the publisher-selected API, while the package describes payment signing as agent-side. This is concrete disclosure of a secret that can authorize wallet transactions.

Static reason

No blocking static signals were detected.

Trigger

A user sets WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY and invokes an MCP tool.

Impact

The API recipient receives the wallet's private key, which can authorize transactions from that wallet.

Mechanism

The runtime copies the environment value into X-402-Wallet and sends it with a POST request to the selected endpoint, which defaults to the publisher's API.

Attack narrative

When WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY is set, each tool call sends its raw value to the API in X-402-Wallet. The package's response says the agent signs payments, but the inspected runtime forwards the key to the server. This exposes the wallet secret to the API recipient.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Malicious at 91.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for block

package.json exposes index.js as the package entrypoint and command.
index.js reads WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY and defaults requests to api.gadgethumans.com.
When a wallet key is configured, index.js places its raw value in the X-402-Wallet header.
Each tool call sends that header in a POST request to the selected endpoint.
The response message tells users to set WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY and says the agent signs payments.

Evidence against

The wallet-key transfer is conditional on the user setting WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY, and the endpoint is configurable through MCP_ENDPOINT.
