# dump_system_settings Dump all system settings (secure, system, global). Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `dump_system_settings`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/dump-system-settings ## Facts - Tool: `dump_system_settings` - Server: Android Forensics ADB MCP Server (`0x-professor/droidforensics-suite`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite.md - Homepage: https://github.com/0x-Professor/DroidForensics-Suite - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "dump_system_settings", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why dump_system_settings is rated Low This tool retrieves configuration and preference data from Android system settings stores without modifying them. While categorized as Read (data retrieval with no side effects), the severity is high because system settings often contain sensitive information including authentication tokens, device identifiers, security configurations, privacy settings, and credentials that could be misused if an AI agent obtains… From the tool's own definition: "Tool dumps system settings (secure, system, global) from an Android device via ADB. The description explicitly indicates data retrieval with no modification: 'Dump all system settings'. No creation, modification, deletion, or external execution is described." ## Use case AI agents call dump_system_settings to retrieve information from Android Forensics ADB MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Android Forensics ADB MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "dump_system_settings": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Android Forensics ADB MCP Server (57) - `create_full_backup` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/create-full-backup.md - `adb_backup_device` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/adb-backup-device.md - `adb_connect_device` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/adb-connect-device.md - `adb_shell_command` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/adb-shell-command.md - `connect_to_device` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/connect-to-device.md - `extract_with_root` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/extract-with-root.md - `reboot_device` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/reboot-device.md - `generate_app_analysis_report` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/generate-app-analysis-report.md - `adb_devices` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/adb-devices.md - `adb_pull_data` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/adb-pull-data.md - `analyze_facebook_messenger` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/analyze-facebook-messenger.md - `analyze_gmail` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/analyze-gmail.md - `analyze_instagram` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/analyze-instagram.md - `analyze_network_connections` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/analyze-network-connections.md - `analyze_partition_info` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/analyze-partition-info.md - `analyze_telegram` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/analyze-telegram.md - `analyze_whatsapp` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/analyze-whatsapp.md - `capture_dmesg` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/capture-dmesg.md - `capture_logcat` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/capture-logcat.md - `check_adb_status` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/check-adb-status.md - `check_root_status` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/check-root-status.md - `collect_common_artifacts` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/collect-common-artifacts.md - `collect_forensic_artifacts` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/collect-forensic-artifacts.md - `create_timeline` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/create-timeline.md - `dump_database` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/dump-database.md - `extract_app_credentials` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/extract-app-credentials.md - `extract_backup_to_tar` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/extract-backup-to-tar.md - `extract_exif_metadata` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/extract-exif-metadata.md - `extract_media_gallery_metadata` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/extract-media-gallery-metadata.md - `generate_executive_summary` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/generate-executive-summary.md - …and 27 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
