transfer_native

THE RISK

Critical Risk

Transferring native tokens (cryptocurrencies) directly moves financial value and commits irreversible blockchain transactions. This is a Financial category tool because it moves money. Severity is critical due to the high blast radius: an AI agent with misuse could drain the wallet, transfer funds to attacker-controlled addresses, or authorize unintended transactions resulting in permanent loss of funds.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description: 'Transfer native tokens (ETH, MATIC, etc.) to an address. Uses the configured wallet.' - explicitly transfers value from the configured wallet to another address without reversibility.

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

HOW TO CONTROL TRANSFER_NATIVE

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 transfer_native:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "transfer_native": {
      "deny_if": [
        {
          "conditions": [],
          "on_deny": "Requires human approval."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Any call to transfer_native is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.
