How to control BinanceOptionsCreateListenKey ↓

AI agents use BinanceOptionsCreateListenKey to create or update resources in BNB Chain MCP — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your BNB Chain MCP environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates a listen key (a token/session identifier) that enables WebSocket subscription to account updates. It creates a new resource (the key) but does not execute trades, move funds, or delete anything. The blast radius is low since a listen key only enables read-only event streaming, not financial operations.

From the tool's definition Create a listen key for options user data stream. The listen key is used to subscribe to account updates via WebSocket.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access BinanceOptionsCreateListenKey gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and BNB Chain MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for BinanceOptionsCreateListenKey:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "BinanceOptionsCreateListenKey": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "binanceoptionscreatelistenkey_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

BinanceOptionsCreateListenKey stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register BNB Chain MCP — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
