Test for SQL injection vulnerabilities with SQLMap

Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `sqlmap_scan`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/alessandroannini-kali-mcp-server/sqlmap-scan

## Facts

- Tool: `sqlmap_scan`
- Server: Kali Linux MCP Server (`alessandroannini/kali-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/alessandroannini-kali-mcp-server.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/AlessandroAnnini/kali-mcp-server
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade D, 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": "sqlmap_scan",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why sqlmap_scan is rated High

SQLMap executes active SQL injection attacks against databases, which can extract data, modify records, and in some configurations achieve remote code execution. It runs external attack tooling with effects entirely dependent on arguments (target URL, parameters, aggression level).

From the tool's own definition: "'Test for SQL injection vulnerabilities with SQLMap' — SQLMap actively probes and exploits SQL injection vulnerabilities against target systems"

## Use case

AI agents invoke sqlmap_scan to trigger actions in Kali Linux MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Kali Linux MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "sqlmap_scan": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "sqlmap_scan_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
