Hunt for ways a buyer can control the price the server charges: a price, quantity, or line total taken from the client request instead of recomputed server-side from a trusted catalog, a negative or overflowing quantity that drives the total down or wraps it, a discount or coupon that stacks, reuses past its limit, or applies to items it should not, and a total computed on the client and trusted at checkout. Covers e-commerce carts, checkout totals, and promotion engines where the amount…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Hunting price and coupon manipulation: whoever computes the total decides what you pay

The amount a customer is charged is computed from item prices, quantities, and discounts, and the only safe
place to do that computation is the server, from data the buyer cannot change. When any input to the total is
taken from the client, the buyer sets the price. The failures are direct. A price, quantity, or line total sent
in the request and trusted, rather than recomputed from a server-side catalog, lets a buyer name their own
price. A negative quantity subtracts from the total, and a quantity large enough to overflow the arithmetic
wraps it to a small or negative number. A discount or coupon that stacks with itself or others, is reused past
its intended limit, or applies to items it was never meant for, cuts the total below its floor. And a total
computed in the browser and accepted at checkout hands the whole calculation to the attacker. The hunt is to
find any input to the charged total that the buyer controls. You hunt this by altering prices, quantities, and
coupons in the request and seeing what the server charges.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add unboundcompute/security-agent-skills/hunting-price-and-coupon-manipulation@sha256:9041ce596d3509dc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260829.b60f9b2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
