WHAT IT DOES

What proxmox_create_windows_preset does on MCP Proxmox Server

AI agents use proxmox_create_windows_preset to create or update resources in MCP Proxmox Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your MCP Proxmox Server environment.

RISK

Why proxmox_create_windows_preset is rated Medium

This tool creates new virtual machines, which is a Write operation—it modifies infrastructure state by adding resources. The severity is high because misconfigured VMs (especially with preset roles like domain-controller) could compromise network security, enable lateral movement, or disrupt critical services if instantiated maliciously or erroneously by an agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate creation of VM resources: 'Create Windows VM with preset configurations'. The word 'Create' combined with preset templates for operational roles (web-server, domain-controller) demonstrates reversible resource provisioning.
