What add_free_ssl does on 20i MCP Server
AI agents use add_free_ssl to create or update resources in 20i MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your 20i MCP Server environment.
Why add_free_ssl is rated Medium
This tool creates a new SSL certificate resource and modifies domain configuration, which are reversible write operations. While SSL changes affect domain security posture, they can be removed or updated (not permanent destruction). The severity is medium because misconfiguration could disrupt HTTPS service or expose domains to security issues, but the action itself is not destructive, financial, or code execution.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'add_free_ssl' and description 'Add free SSL certificate for domains' indicate creation/modification of SSL certificate configuration for domains.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs add_free_ssl safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 20i MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For add_free_ssl, this is the rule to start with:
add_free_ssl stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect 20i MCP Server, apply this rule, and every add_free_ssl call is checked against it from then on.
