What cdp_delete_user does on CDP MCP Server
AI agents call cdp_delete_user to permanently remove resources in CDP MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why cdp_delete_user is rated Critical
This tool performs an irreversible deletion operation on user entities within the CDP system. Deletion of user accounts is a destructive action that cannot be reversed without manual intervention (account recreation, data restoration). The 'Destructive' category is most appropriate as it involves permanent removal of data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'cdp_delete_user' combined with description 'Delete a CDP user by ID' explicitly indicates irreversible deletion of user data. The verb 'delete' and the action of removing a user account cannot be undone.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs cdp_delete_user safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and CDP MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For cdp_delete_user, this is the rule to start with:
cdp_delete_user is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect CDP MCP Server, apply this rule, and every cdp_delete_user call is checked against it from then on.
