What getSupportedNetworks does on MCP Ethers Wallet

Why getSupportedNetworks needs a policy

This is a straightforward read-only query tool that retrieves static configuration data about blockchain networks. It performs no mutations, executions, financial operations, or destructive actions. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—an attacker gains only informational content about available networks, which is typically public data.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get a list of all supported networks and their configurations' — a retrieval operation with no side effects. It queries and returns network metadata.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access getSupportedNetworks gives an agent:

How to control getSupportedNetworks

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP Ethers Wallet, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for getSupportedNetworks:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "getSupportedNetworks": {}
  }
}

getSupportedNetworks is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register MCP Ethers Wallet — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
