AI agents call create_full_backup to permanently remove resources in Android Forensics ADB MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The description is empty, lowering confidence. The name suggests creating a backup (Write), but on Android forensic ADB servers, 'adb backup' can overwrite existing backup files and may trigger device-side operations with irreversible effects (e.g., overwriting prior backups, triggering device state changes). A sibling tool 'adb_backup_device' also exists, suggesting this may be a more comprehensive variant.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_full_backup' on a server described as enabling 'device backup, artifact collection, and secure command execution' via ADB.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_full_backup gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Android Forensics ADB MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_full_backup:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"hide": [
"create_full_backup"
]
}create_full_backup disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

create_full_backup. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Android Forensics ADB MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Android Forensics ADB MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_full_backup: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Android Forensics ADB MCP Server. Nothing to install.
create_full_backup is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_full_backup rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_full_backup. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
create_full_backup is provided by the Android Forensics ADB MCP Server MCP server (0x-professor/droidforensics-suite). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Android Forensics ADB MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
