What delete_event does on AIquila — Nextcloud MCP Server
AI agents call delete_event to permanently remove resources in AIquila — Nextcloud MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why delete_event is rated Critical
This tool permanently removes calendar event data with no undo mechanism. While the blast radius is limited to a single calendar event (not system-wide data), the irreversible nature and potential for accidentally deleting important calendar entries (meetings, deadlines, reminders) justifies 'high' severity.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Delete a calendar event' and 'This action is irreversible.' The name 'delete_event' combined with the irreversible deletion semantics clearly indicates a destructive operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
