# create_ftp_account Create a new FTP account Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `create_ftp_account`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/create-ftp-account ## Facts - Tool: `create_ftp_account` - Server: cPanel MCP Server (`0xhayd3n/cpanel-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/0xHayd3n/cPanel-MCP-Server - Risk category: Write (Medium 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": "create_ftp_account", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why create_ftp_account is rated Medium Creating an FTP account is a Write operation—it modifies the hosting account configuration by adding a new user with credentials and filesystem access. While reversible (the account can be deleted), it creates persistent system state. Severity is high because an AI misusing this could create backdoor accounts, compromise server access control, or enable unauthorized data exfiltration through FTP. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_ftp_account' and description 'Create a new FTP account' indicate irreversible creation of a new account with persistent access credentials." ## Use case AI agents use create_ftp_account to create or update resources in cPanel MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your cPanel MCP Server environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
