MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous Frida tools

Execute · High attach Attaching Frida to a process is an Execute-category action because it triggers an external operation (process attachment) that enables subsequent dynamic instrumentation, code injection, and memory inspection of the targ Execute · High call_rpc This tool executes arbitrary functions exported by Frida scripts running inside attached processes. Execute · High detach Detaching Frida and unloading all persistent scripts terminates active instrumentation sessions and removes injected code from the target process. Execute · Critical load_script Loading and executing arbitrary JavaScript scripts into a live process via Frida constitutes code execution with significant blast radius.

4 of Frida's 6 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control Frida

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Frida, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Cap read operations

{
  "get_script_output": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "get_script_output_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.

Create a free account and register Frida — nothing to install.
Add these rules — paste them, or build them visually. Tune the limits to your setup.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

Execute attach Attach Frida to a process. AI MUST call this first, and MUST call it again whenever any other tool reports tha Execute call_rpc Call a function exported by a persistent script loaded via Execute detach Detach Frida from the current process and unload all persistent scripts. Call this when finished with the targ Execute load_script Load a persistent background Frida script. Use this to set up hooks that collect data over time or long-runnin

FAQ

Questions about Frida

Is the Frida MCP server safe to use without restrictions? +

The Frida server is primarily read-only with 2 read tools. While it cannot modify data, an agent in a retry loop can make thousands of API calls per minute, exhausting rate limits and running up costs. Rate limiting is still recommended.

How many tools does the Frida MCP server expose? +

6 tools across 2 categories: Read, Write. 2 are read-only. 4 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I enforce a policy on Frida? +

Register the Frida MCP server in PolicyLayer, apply the suggested rules above (adjust the limits to your use case), and point your AI client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL instead of the server directly. Your agents keep the same tools; PolicyLayer evaluates every call against policy before it executes. Nothing to install, live in minutes.

Enforce policy on every Frida tool call.

Deterministic rules across all 6 Frida tools. Per-identity grants. Full audit log. Live in minutes. Nothing to install.
