WHAT IT DOES

What change_vps_password does on 20i MCP Server

AI agents use change_vps_password 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.

RISK

Why change_vps_password is rated Medium

This tool modifies the root password of a VPS, which is a privileged credential change. It is reversible (a new password can be set again), so it falls under Write rather than Destructive. However, the severity is high because changing root credentials could lock out legitimate users or enable unauthorized access to an entire VPS.
