What proxmox_list_all_clusters does on MCP Proxmox Server
AI agents call proxmox_list_all_clusters to retrieve information from MCP Proxmox Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why proxmox_list_all_clusters is rated Low
This tool performs a read-only operation to enumerate existing Proxmox clusters. It retrieves information but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. While the information returned could be sensitive (cluster topology), the tool itself causes no state changes. Severity is low because listing clusters is reconnaissance-level activity with no direct impact on infrastructure.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'proxmox_list_all_clusters' and description 'List all configured Proxmox clusters' indicate a query operation that retrieves cluster configuration data without modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs proxmox_list_all_clusters 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_list_all_clusters, this is the rule to start with:
proxmox_list_all_clusters is read-only, so it stays allowed. 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_list_all_clusters call is checked against it from then on.

Register the MCP Proxmox Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for proxmox_list_all_clusters: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches MCP Proxmox Server. Nothing to install.
proxmox_list_all_clusters is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the proxmox_list_all_clusters rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
