Part of the Dynamic Feed server.

exploited_vulnerabilities is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

SECURE DYNAMIC FEED →

Free to start. No card required.

AI agents call exploited_vulnerabilities to retrieve information from Dynamic Feed without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though exploited_vulnerabilities only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access exploited_vulnerabilities gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so exploited_vulnerabilities only ever does what you allow.

What does the exploited_vulnerabilities tool do? +

Vulnerabilities CONFIRMED exploited in the wild — the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, each enriched with its EPSS exploitation-probability score (FIRST.org). The 'which CVEs actually matter right now' layer that pairs with security_advisories (disclosed CVEs) and check_vulnerability (is package@version affected). Most recently catalogued first. Args: query: match a CVE id / name / description. vendor: filter by vendor (e.g. Microsoft, Cisco, Fortinet). product: filter by product (e.g. Windows, PAN-OS). ransomware_only: only CVEs linked to known ransomware campaigns. recent_days: only CVEs added to the KEV catalog in the last N days. limit: max results.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Dynamic Feed MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on exploited_vulnerabilities? +

Register the Dynamic Feed MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for exploited_vulnerabilities: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Dynamic Feed. Nothing to install.

What risk level is exploited_vulnerabilities? +

exploited_vulnerabilities is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit exploited_vulnerabilities? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the exploited_vulnerabilities rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block exploited_vulnerabilities completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for exploited_vulnerabilities. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides exploited_vulnerabilities? +

exploited_vulnerabilities is provided by the Dynamic Feed MCP server (https://dynamicfeed.ai/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Dynamic Feed tool call.
