Risk Level: MEDIUM
Full Analysis
MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
- Third-party content exposure detected (medium risk: 0.30). The Alpaca trading MCP workflow reads market news (via the get_news tool) and company/asset data which can contain untrusted external free text.
MEDIUM W009: Direct money access capability detected (payment gateways, crypto, banking).
- Direct money access detected (high risk: 1.00). The skill documentation explicitly provides tools and API capabilities for executing financial transactions, specifically placing market, limit, stop, and options orders through the Alpaca Trading API ("post_orders"), which falls directly under market orders and financial execution capabilities.
