What dub_audio does on Freshdesk
AI agents invoke dub_audio to trigger actions in Freshdesk. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why dub_audio is rated High
This tool processes audio by translating and dubbing it with voice cloning, which triggers an external media transformation operation. It's not a simple read or write — it executes a complex pipeline (translation + voice cloning + audio synthesis). The voice cloning aspect raises the severity due to potential misuse (impersonation).

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs dub_audio safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Freshdesk, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For dub_audio, this is the rule to start with:
dub_audio stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Freshdesk, apply this rule, and every dub_audio call is checked against it from then on.
