Why theprotocol_authForgotPassword is rated Critical
A password reset request is destructive because it invalidates the existing password and forces an account state change that cannot be undone without administrative intervention. If triggered maliciously against target accounts, it could lock legitimate users out or enable unauthorized access if the attacker controls the email. The 'Public' note indicates no authentication barrier, amplifying the blast radius.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'DESTRUCTIVE: request password reset email.' The tool initiates account credential reset, which is irreversible and renders current passwords invalid.
