What proxmox_deploy_vpn_server does on MCP Proxmox Server
AI agents invoke proxmox_deploy_vpn_server to trigger actions in MCP Proxmox 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.
Why proxmox_deploy_vpn_server is rated High
Deploying a VPN server is an Execute action because it triggers infrastructure provisioning and service initialization in the Proxmox environment. While not immediately destructive (data isn't permanently deleted), it creates a new external-facing service with security implications and operational side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool deploys a VPN server (proxmox_deploy_vpn_server), which is an external operation that executes infrastructure provisioning.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs proxmox_deploy_vpn_server safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and MCP Proxmox Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For proxmox_deploy_vpn_server, this is the rule to start with:
proxmox_deploy_vpn_server stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect MCP Proxmox Server, apply this rule, and every proxmox_deploy_vpn_server call is checked against it from then on.
