What network_get_list does on Aapanel

It performs a read-only operation similar to commands like 'netstat' or 'ss', presenting existing system state rather than modifying or executing anything. The action is informational only, making it a Read category tool with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'network_get_list' and description 'Get network connection list and statistics' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or execution of external actions.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs network_get_list safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Aapanel, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For network_get_list, this is the rule to start with:
network_get_list is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Aapanel, apply this rule, and every network_get_list call is checked against it from then on.
