## Facts

- Tool: `network_get_interfaces`
- Server: Aapanel (`nipunanirmal/aapanel-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/aapanel-mcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/nipunanirmal/aapanel-mcp
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "network_get_interfaces",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why network_get_interfaces is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves network interface metadata without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It is a pure read operation with minimal security impact even if misused by an AI agent, as the attacker would only gain visibility into network configuration already present on the system.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name includes 'get' and description states 'Get network interface information'. The operation retrieves read-only network configuration data (IPs, MAC, gateway, DNS) with no side effects or modifications."

## Use case

AI agents call network_get_interfaces to retrieve information from Aapanel 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 Aapanel:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "network_get_interfaces": {}
  }
}
```
