# extract_with_root A execute tool on the Android Forensics ADB MCP Server MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `extract_with_root`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/extract-with-root ## Facts - Tool: `extract_with_root` - 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: Execute (High risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "extract_with_root", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why extract_with_root is rated High The name implies executing privileged (root-level) extraction operations on an Android device. Root access allows arbitrary command execution and data extraction. Description is empty, lowering confidence, but context from server description and sibling tools strongly suggests elevated-privilege execution. Rated high severity due to unrestricted root-level access potential. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'extract_with_root' on a server described as enabling 'secure command execution' and 'artifact collection' via ADB; sibling tools include 'adb_shell_command' suggesting privileged shell access" ## Use case AI agents invoke extract_with_root to trigger actions in Android Forensics ADB MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. 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": { "extract_with_root": { "limits": [ { "counter": "extract_with_root_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 10, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## 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 - `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 - `dump_system_settings` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/0x-professor-droidforensics-suite/dump-system-settings.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.
